My understanding is if you have heartburn, etc, you take a couple
tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. If you feel better, means you have
the discomfort from low acid. If you feel worse, you have too much acid.
My husband did this test a couple of times, and it definitely makes him
worse. So he has too much acid, not too little.
However, Zantac did make him worse, so did other things he was supposed
to take for it. Confusing.
My CS is slightly acid (I had forgotten about that) so maybe that is why
drinking the CS on an empty stomach gives him a bellyache. I think I'll
try adding a pinch of baking soda just before he drinks it, and see if
that makes any difference.

It was just assumed I had too much acid. The first time I had pain
and it went through to my back. The doctor assumed I had an ulcer and
didn't think testing was necessary since it was my first problem. The
Zantac worked great (took it for 6 weeks) and I never had a problem
again with that. Then the other time I was having lots of chest pain
which we figured out was really coming from the stomach or esophagus.
She assumed it was from acid splashing into the esophagus (acid
reflux) and prescribed Prilosec which increased my pain. So I took
Zantac again and it made everything feel good. I take it now if I
overeat or whatever and have a one time burning pain in the chest.
Often Tums or other antacids made me feel like I'd eaten a concrete block.
