Thanks Dr. D for your input. It helped.

Even though I normally never take any medications, I will try Prevacid
for three weeks, like my doctor said, in order to find out if it is the
acid reflux that is causing my throat to be severely swollen.

As Prevacid apparently turns off the production of hydrochloric acid in
the stomach, are there any things I should keep in mind as I eat
mostly raw? I'm worrying that I now have no protection against food
borne bacteria or that certain vegetables etc will be very difficult to
digest?

Should I perhaps blend all my food during this time or/and make
vegetable juices to aid with nutrient absorption?

Thanks,
Patrick
