Description
Reflux Raft Berry Burst is an all-natural acid reflux gel powered by marine alginate therapy. When taken after a meal, the sodium alginate reacts with stomach acid to form a buoyant gel "raft" that floats on top of your stomach contents — creating a physical barrier that keeps acid, bile, and pepsin from rising into your esophagus and throat. Unlike PPIs that suppress acid production throughout your entire body, Reflux Raft works mechanically at the source. No systemic absorption. No drug interactions. Pregnancy-safe. Berry burst flavor in a convenient squeeze tube — 10 oz (300 ml). Zero sugar, gluten-free, low sodium, all natural.
How It Works
The active ingredient is sodium alginate — a natural compound derived from brown seaweed. When it contacts stomach acid, alginate undergoes a chemical reaction that transforms it into a floating gel matrix. This gel "raft" sits right at the gastroesophageal junction — the exact spot where reflux happens — and acts as a physical lid. Acid stays in the stomach. The raft also traps pepsin, the digestive enzyme responsible for the tissue damage in LPR (laryngopharyngeal reflux). Pepsin is what causes the chronic throat mucus, the constant clearing, the hoarseness, and the "lump in your throat" sensation. PPIs reduce acid but do nothing about pepsin that's already sitting in your throat tissue. The alginate raft stops it at the source.

The Only Thing That Worked During Pregnancy

"32 weeks pregnant and the reflux was unbearable. Couldn't sleep, couldn't eat dinner without it coming back up. My OB said Tums and that's it. My midwife mentioned alginate therapy. One dose after dinner and I slept through the night for the first time in months. I cried. No medication, no side effects, just a physical barrier. This should be in every prenatal bag."

15 Years on Omeprazole. Done.

"My GI doctor put me on omeprazole in 2011 and never took me off. I started getting bone density concerns and my B12 was tanking. Tried to quit cold turkey — the rebound acid was worse than the original problem. Switched to this gel and tapered off the PPI over 6 weeks. I've been PPI-free for 3 months now. The raft concept just makes more sense."

My LPR Throat Mucus Is Finally Gone

"For two years I was clearing my throat every 30 seconds. ENT said LPR — silent reflux. Put me on 40mg omeprazole twice daily. Nothing changed. The mucus, the hoarseness, the feeling of something stuck in my throat — all still there. My speech therapist told me about pepsin and alginate. This gel stopped the pepsin from reaching my throat. Within two weeks the mucus started clearing."

Works in Minutes, Not Weeks

"The thing about PPIs is you have to take them for 2 weeks before they even start working. And then you're on them forever. This gel works the first time you take it. After dinner, one squeeze, done. No more propping up on 3 pillows. No more sleeping on my left side only. It just blocks the acid from coming up. Simple."

Finally Eating Dinner Without Fear

"I'd stopped going out to eat. Every restaurant meal ended with me in the car doubled over or running to the bathroom. Tried every antacid, every PPI. My naturopath suggested alginate therapy — said it's been used in the UK for decades under a different name. This gel after meals changed everything. I went to an Italian restaurant last week and ate pasta for the first time in two years."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Reflux Raft

How do I take it?
Squeeze a dose (about 1 tablespoon / 15 ml) directly into your mouth after meals and before bed. The berry burst flavor makes it easy to take straight. It works best taken within 30 minutes of eating — the gel needs stomach acid to form the raft, and acid is highest right after a meal. Most people take it after their two largest meals and again before bed. Each tube is a 10 oz (300 ml) supply.
Is this safe during pregnancy?
Alginate therapy works mechanically — it forms a physical barrier in your stomach, not a chemical change in your body. There is no systemic absorption: the alginate stays in your digestive tract and passes naturally. It does not enter your bloodstream, cross the placenta, or interact with prenatal vitamins. This is why alginate-based reflux products have been used safely during pregnancy for decades, particularly in the UK and Europe where alginate therapy is the first-line recommendation for pregnancy reflux.
How is this different from PPIs like omeprazole?
PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) shut down the acid pumps in your stomach lining. They reduce ALL stomach acid — including the acid you need to digest food and absorb nutrients like B12, calcium, and magnesium. Long-term PPI use is associated with bone fractures, kidney problems, B12 deficiency, and rebound acid when you try to stop. Reflux Raft doesn't touch your stomach acid at all. It creates a physical barrier — a floating gel raft — that sits on top of your stomach contents and prevents them from rising. Your stomach still produces the acid it needs. You just stop feeling it in your esophagus and throat.
Will this help with LPR / silent reflux / throat mucus?
This is actually where alginate therapy outperforms PPIs. LPR (laryngopharyngeal reflux) is largely driven by pepsin — a digestive enzyme that gets deposited in your throat tissue by reflux episodes. Once pepsin is in your throat, any acidity (even from foods or drinks) reactivates it and causes tissue damage, mucus production, chronic clearing, hoarseness, and the "lump in throat" feeling. PPIs reduce acid but don't stop pepsin from reaching your throat. The alginate raft traps pepsin at the stomach level before it can rise. That's why many LPR patients who failed on PPIs respond to alginate therapy.
How fast does it work?
The raft forms within 1–3 minutes of reaching your stomach. Most people feel the difference after their very first dose — especially at night. Unlike PPIs, which take 2–4 weeks to reach full effect, alginate therapy works mechanically and immediately. The raft typically persists for 3–4 hours, which is why we recommend taking it after meals (when reflux is worst) and before bed (when lying flat makes it worse).
Can I take this alongside my PPI?
Yes. Many people use alginate therapy alongside their PPI while tapering off, or as a rescue alongside a lower PPI dose. The alginate works through a completely different mechanism — physical barrier vs. acid suppression — so there's no interaction. If you're trying to reduce or stop your PPI, talk to your doctor about a gradual taper plan. Stopping a PPI abruptly can cause rebound acid hypersecretion, which is temporary but miserable.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Then you pay nothing. Our 90-day money-back guarantee covers you completely. Most people know within the first few doses whether the raft is working — you'll feel the difference after dinner or your first night sleeping flat. The 90-day window gives you time to test it across all your trigger situations. If it's not for you, contact us for a full refund. No questions asked.

The PPI Trap

They gave you a pill that turns off your stomach. Nobody mentioned what happens next.

The burning started after dinner. Then at night. Then all day. Your doctor wrote a prescription in 90 seconds — omeprazole, take it every morning. It helped. For a while. Then the muscle cramps started. The brain fog. The bloating that made you look 6 months pregnant after every meal. You tried to stop and the acid came back worse than before — rebound. So you went back on it. That was 3 years ago. 5 years ago. 12 years ago. Nobody told you the drug was designed for 8 weeks, not 8 years. Nobody told you it would deplete your B12, thin your bones, and damage your kidneys. Nobody told you there was another way — one that doesn't shut off your stomach at all.

  • Burning that crawls from your stomach to your throat after every meal
  • Mucus buildup, constant throat clearing, hoarseness your ENT can't explain
  • Sleeping propped on 3 pillows because lying flat is torture
  • Tried to stop PPIs — rebound acid worse than the original problem
  • Afraid to eat your favorite foods, afraid to go out to dinner

Marine Alginate Therapy

How the alginate raft protects your esophagus

Healthy esophageal junction - LES valve closed, acid contained
NORMAL

The Healthy Junction

In a healthy digestive system, the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) acts as a one-way valve. Food goes down, acid stays in the stomach. The esophageal lining is smooth, pink, and undamaged. You eat, you digest, you don't think about it.

Acid reflux - acid and pepsin surging up, mucus in throat, inflamed tissue
REFLUX

The Breakdown

The sphincter weakens or relaxes at the wrong time. Stomach acid — along with pepsin and bile — surges upward into the esophagus. The lining burns. The tissue inflames. In LPR, pepsin reaches the throat and embeds in the tissue, causing mucus, clearing, and hoarseness even when you don't feel heartburn. PPIs reduce acid but the pepsin damage continues.

THE RAFT

The Physical Solution

Reflux Raft's sodium alginate forms a floating gel barrier right at the gastroesophageal junction — the exact spot where reflux happens. Acid, pepsin, and bile are physically blocked from rising. Your stomach still produces the acid it needs to digest food. The raft just keeps it where it belongs. The barrier persists for 3–4 hours after each dose.

Why the mechanism matters

Alginate Raft vs. PPI vs. Antacid

Antacids neutralize acid for 30 minutes, then it's back. PPIs suppress acid systemically but take weeks to work and don't address pepsin. The alginate raft forms a physical barrier in minutes, lasts for hours, and traps pepsin — the enzyme PPIs miss entirely.

What to expect — dose by dose

First Dose: The Raft Forms

Within minutes of swallowing, the alginate reacts with your stomach acid and forms a floating gel barrier. Most people feel the relief immediately — the burning stops, the rising sensation is gone. If you take it before bed, you may sleep flat for the first time in months.

  • Relief within 1–3 minutes
  • No systemic side effects
Week 1–2: The Pattern Breaks

After a few days of consistent use (after meals and before bed), you start trusting it. You eat dinner without bracing. You lie down without stacking pillows. The cycle of anxiety → eating → regret → antacid breaks. For LPR patients, the throat mucus and clearing start to reduce as pepsin exposure drops.

  • Confidence to eat trigger foods returns
  • Sleeping position normalizes
Week 2–6: The Healing Window

With pepsin and acid no longer bathing your esophageal and throat tissue several times a day, the tissue starts to heal. The chronic irritation calms. LPR patients notice the hoarseness fading, the lump-in-throat sensation resolving, and the mucus thinning out. The esophageal lining gets a chance to repair what years of reflux damaged.

  • Throat and esophageal tissue recovery
  • LPR symptoms continue to improve
Month 2+: The New Normal

Reflux management becomes routine — a squeeze after meals, one before bed. No pills to remember on an empty stomach. No rebound if you miss a dose. Many people find they need it less often as their tissue heals and inflammation subsides. The 90-day guarantee covers you through the full recovery window.

  • Sustainable daily management
  • No rebound, no dependency

The numbers behind the reflux epidemic

Why millions of Americans are looking for a better answer than "just take omeprazole."

60M+
Americans experience heartburn monthly
GERD affects roughly 20% of the U.S. population. It's one of the most common GI conditions — and one of the most over-medicated.
50%
Of GERD patients still have symptoms on PPIs
Half of people taking a daily PPI still experience breakthrough reflux, nighttime symptoms, or LPR throat issues. The drug reduces acid — it doesn't stop reflux.
80%
Of pregnant women experience reflux
Pregnancy reflux is driven by pressure and hormones — not excess acid. PPIs are Category C. Alginate therapy is the first-line recommendation in UK pregnancy guidelines.

"My gastroenterologist told me about alginate rafting after I failed two different PPIs. Said it's standard in the UK but barely known here. This gel is the first thing that's actually stopped my nighttime reflux. I sleep flat now. No wedge pillow. No Tums on the nightstand. After 7 years of this, I'm angry nobody told me sooner."

"Third trimester with my second baby and the reflux this time was medieval. I couldn't eat after 4pm or I'd be up all night. My OB cleared this because it's not a drug — it's a gel that sits in your stomach. First night: I ate dinner at 7, took the gel, and slept until my alarm. I've ordered 4 tubes since."

"LPR for 3 years. The throat clearing was ruining my career — I'm a teacher and my students thought I was sick. ENT put me on double-dose omeprazole. Nothing changed because LPR isn't about acid, it's about pepsin. This gel traps the pepsin before it reaches my throat. Six weeks in and I can teach a full class without clearing once. My voice is back."
