Yes, the Stomach Soother can help dogs support a healthy and comfortable digestive tract. It does this with a highly researched blend of herbs that help to balance acid levels in the gut and reduce gas and nausea, while also soothing and protecting an inflamed mucous membrane that lines the digestive tract. While the Stomach Soother herbal remedy can help address the symptoms, there is still more to do. Many believe acid reflux is a symptom of too much stomach acid and it is treated as such with the use of antacids. This is usually a mistake though, as in reality the majority of the time reflux is a result of too little stomach acid. Too little stomach acid causes the stomach to churn in an effort to digest food and this results in the cardiac sphincter at the top of the stomach allowing stomach contents up into the esophagus. So, while using the Stomach Soother is very helpful the goal is to improve digestion. You can do this with the use of Digestive Enzymes and other supplements found on our Digestive Support page. Providing a more easily digested whole food diet is equally important and we provide more information on how to do this in our article How to Feed Your Dog.
