Hi, newb here. I have been diagnosed as pre-diabetic but also suffer from reflux/hiatus hernia. A low carb diet would seem to be favoured for pre-diabetes whilst a low fat diet is essential to tackle the reflux problem. Has anyone else faced this dichotomy?, and how did you resolve it? Thanks.

I used the iqoro device for my silent reflux. It’s kinda expensive for what is essentially a piece of plastic but it worked really well. It’s especially good for hiatus hernia. If I don’t use it for a week or so it the reflux comes straight back, so i start the training again and hey presto it disappears! I can’t guarantee the same results for others and I don’t have a hernia but it changed my life and no more meds xx
The warranty is only 7 months and their usable lifespan is only 12 months, £145, mmmm.
I’ve had mine about a year so I best be careful with it! I used it for about 3 months as instructed and then just did what they call maintenance a couple of times a week. Not sure how it could break ? Unless you stood on it I suppose but its pretty sturdy. Or maybe it self destructs after 12 months. Sure I saw similar devices on Amazon that were cheaper once.
