This bears checking into. Since we use teas for many other ills, including IBS, why not reflux. I am going to do some more research on this one.

out of the ones I see online these look the best http://www.nutsonline.com/driedfruit/persimmons/premium.html?source=gaw&kw=cam3grp103AdA&gclid=CL36_rn5gp0CFR4UagodpTwvbg
after you make the tea recipe let me know how it was..I won't be buying anything online until I get paid in another 2 weeks.

These do look good. I will try this and let you know. I had such a bad case of heartburn last night, I could have used it.

ok will you make the same recipe that was given in link in my first post it was:
Combine 2 quarts of water, ½ cup of thinly sliced fresh ginger and 3 cinnamon sticks. Simmer for ½ hour. Strain the liquid and stir in 1 and ½ cup sugar and 1 cup of sliced dried persimmons. Keep refrigerated.
How would you go about straining all of that? would you put some kind of strainer over a pitcher or wat? what's the best way to store in the fridge becaue I don't think I have any container to hold liquids, I would need something small. 2 quarts sounds like alot..and I'd only drink a small cup to see what it did to me.

Yeah, 2 quarts is a bit much, especially when you don't know if it will work or that you can even stomach the taste. Maybe half the recipe at first until you know.
Just a cheap pitcher would be fine. Or you can get those big plastic jugs with lids. You can get those at the dollar store. I would just pour it through a wire mesh strainer...you know the hand held kind.
