It is made with sodium alginate, a fiber that comes from kelp. When alginate meets the acid that is already in your stomach, it sets. It turns from a runny gel into a soft, springy layer. That layer is lighter than the meal underneath it, so it rises and rests on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is the whole idea. A soft lid, sitting on top of dinner, right where your food meets everything above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a physical thing. Not a chemical one. Keep It Down does not change your stomach chemistry and it does not switch anything off. Your stomach acid keeps doing its job, which is breaking down your food. The gel just sits above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is in it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSodium alginate\u003c\/strong\u003e, from kelp.

That is 5 ml. Swallow it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake it after your biggest meal of the day, or right before you lie down. Some people do both. The tube holds about 30 doses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo water. No shaker. No mixing. Nothing to time. You are not standing at the sink waiting for a powder to dissolve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake it at the same point each day and you will stop having to remember it.

Kelp is doing the work\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSodium alginate comes from brown seaweed. It is the same family of fiber that makes ice cream smooth.

Bicarbonate is what makes the barrier form\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the part people get wrong. The bicarbonate in Keep It Down is not there to change your stomach chemistry. It is there to make bubbles. Those bubbles get trapped in the setting gel and turn a dense layer into a light one. Without them, nothing floats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4. It floats because it is lighter than your dinner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimple physics. Oil floats on water. The gel floats on your meal.

A barrier needs volume. It needs to be enough liquid to spread across the top of what you ate and cover it. Five millilitres can do that. A pill the size of a pea cannot. The format is not a style choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9. Your body does not absorb it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe gel does its job in your stomach and nowhere else. It does not enter your blood the way a medicine does.

Fifty years on British pharmacy shelves\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFloating alginate gels have sat on the shelf in United Kingdom pharmacies since the 1970s. They are ordinary there.
