They really do. I found it as a "secret, nature cure" on the Internet a few years back; with eating an apple every night, I went from four acid-controlling pills per day (two prescribed, two OTC) to only one. I've told a number of friends about it, and it helped them, too; most don't need any more pills at all. (I have a particularly high production of acid.) The directions specified Red Delicious, but I much prefer Gala, and get the same benefit. I think whatever suits your palate will work.
Thanks for the link. I'll have to rethink my aversion to leftovers (even "fresh" leftovers, <g>), but it looks like some good info there. .
