Have you ever had a time in your life where your child was hurting and you didn't know what to do to help? This happened to me 4 years ago with my boy, Kyler. What made it even worse was that Kyler was an infant and couldn't communicate his discomfort verbally. During my wife's pregnancy all had gone well and we had a normal delivery. Kyler was happy and healthy and we were able to take him home from the hospital. After having him home for a few days, though, we noticed that he threw up most, if not all, of what he would eat. Not only would he throw up but he would break out into a coughing fit and cry uncontrollably. After about 1 month of this it progressed to the point where he actually turned a shade of blue during his coughing fit. At this time we figured that this was definitely not normal and that he must be really ill. We took him to his pediatrician and, to our surprise, were told that he had acid reflux. It was a bad case of reflux, but we were reassured that he would grow out of it eventually. They sent us home with a prescription for adult strength acid reflux medicine. The doctor wasn't sure how much we should give to him, but suggested we try using half of a pill, crushing it up and putting it in a bottle with formula or breast milk. We were told to watch him closely afterwards. If he became non responsive, had trouble breathing or if his eyes rolled back in his head then we were to rush him straight to the emergency room. Hearing the possible side effects of giving our baby this medicine scared us! We didn't want our little boy to suffer, but we also didn't feel comfortable giving him an adult strength medicine. We decided to think on it for a couple of days to see if we could figure out something better. As the days went by my wife noticed that when she took her supplement drink, called ProArgi9+, our boy didn't have any of the reflux problems. We wondered if this was a fluke or if the ProArgi9+ actually helped with his reflux. We decided to experiment with it and found that when my wife (who was nursing) consumed this product Kyler consistently didn't have acid reflux symptoms. When she didn't take it, the reflux came back. That's all the proof we needed. From then on my wife consistently drank the ProArgi9+ everyday. At the age of 6 months old our little Kyler decided to quit nursing and moved to a formula bottle. It didn't immediately occur to us that he was no longer receiving the supplement that was keeping his reflux at bay. A few days after switching exclusively to formula Kyler began his throwing up and coughing again. We were at church, in the middle of services, when it began. From the eyes of those around us it would appear that we had brought a very ill baby to church. We knew better though. He wasn't ill, his reflux was back. My wife and I were so worried. I immediately stood up and took him home. We decided to try putting a portion of the Proargi9 powder right into Kyler's formula to see if it would have the same effect that it did when he was nursing and my wife took the supplement. To our immense relief, it worked. All we needed to do was give him the supplement once a day in his bottle and the reflux became a thing of the past. We were so happy!! Kyler is now 4 years old and, as promised, grew out of the acid reflux. He now takes the ProArgi9+ just because he loves it! He asks for it every morning.
