What are some some mostly surefire and effective herbal cures for heartburn and indigestion. I am not interested in merely managing it .. but "fixing" it if I can.

Be sure to include a disclaimer in you answer stating that you are not offering unlicensed medical advice. I too, will admit that I realize that your "hearsay" does not promote constitute or claim a cure. The FDA and the medical establishment is understanably paranoid about herbs that might really work.
