The Floradix bitters contain fructose, which is a fermentable sugar.

Problems such as H. pylori infection or a hiatal hernia could also contribute to GERD.

Yes I added a small amount of honey. And for the bitters, wouldn't the amount of fermentable sugar consumed be negligible in a half dropper full especially since taking it with meals and taken together with carbs? I mean the whole point is for the bitters and acv to help with digestion (including the honey/fructose) and why would a small amount honey/fructose render them basically useless? So i guess what i'm saying is the benefits of taking the bitters and acv should outweigh the negative impact of the sugars? Still very confused about this.
