FAQ
Coffee Tamer
Can I just use baking soda to reduce acidity in coffee?
Not effectively—and definitely not deliciously. Coffee Tamer® is 7x more powerful than baking soda when it comes to neutralizing coffee acid. Plus, baking soda leaves a salty, unpleasant taste, while Coffee Tamer preserves your coffee’s natural flavor.
Bonus fact: Baking soda is high in sodium. Just two cups of coffee “tamed” with baking soda could max out your daily sodium intake, according to the American Heart Association.
Does it take more than 400mg of Coffee Tamer to work?
Nope. Each packet is perfectly measured. Just 200mg raises the pH of 8oz of coffee by 1 full point, making it significantly less acidic. Since most people drink larger cups, we provide 400mg per packet for full coverage.
Can’t I just crush TUMS® and add it to my coffee?
We wouldn’t recommend it. Coffee Tamer is 12x more effective than TUMS at reducing acidity in coffee. In fact, you’d need 7 TUMS tablets to try to match one Coffee Tamer packet—and that would cost more and ruin your coffee.
Imagine trying to enjoy your morning brew with 7 chalky tablets floating around—no thanks!
If the granules don’t dissolve, do they even work?
Absolutely. Coffee Tamer doesn’t need to dissolve to be effective. As the granules pass through your coffee, they interact with and neutralize the acids, reducing bitterness and protecting your stomach—without altering flavor or texture.
Does the calcium in Coffee Tamer cause constipation?
No. Constipation is typically caused by a lack of magnesium, not an excess of calcium. That’s why Coffee Tamer includes a balanced formula with magnesium to support digestion and promote regularity.
Fun fact: About 30% of Americans are magnesium deficient, especially older adults and women. Coffee Tamer helps support that balance.
Is Coffee Tamer expensive?
A: Not at all. At just 25¢ a cup, you’re getting a science-backed, patented product made in small batches with care. It’s clean, natural, and incredibly effective—because you deserve to enjoy coffee without compromise.
What are the Coffee Tamer Ingredients?
Our products are crafted with biodegradable, food-grade minerals that are all GRAS-recognized (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the FDA. These aren’t trendy additives or fleeting fads—these are time-tested, proven ingredients with a long track record of safety and efficacy.
We don’t just use safe ingredients—we handle them with integrity. Our patented process transforms familiar minerals into powerful acid-neutralizing granules, designed for maximum effectiveness without impacting taste, aroma, or experience.
Food Tamer
Can’t I just take an antacid after eating acidic food?
You could—but that treats the symptom, not the cause. Food Tamer works before digestion by reducing the acid content in your food, so you can enjoy flavorful meals without the after-meal discomfort. Prevention > reaction.
Will Food Tamer change the taste of my food?
Not a bit. Food Tamer is flavorless and designed to blend seamlessly into acidic dishes like tomato sauce, chili, soups, and even salad dressings. You won’t taste it—but your stomach will thank you.
Can’t I just use baking soda in food to reduce acid?
Baking soda might reduce acid, but it also adds a salty, metallic taste—and a load of sodium. Food Tamer uses a precise blend of natural minerals with ultra-low sodium, sugar, or preservatives. It’s clean, safe, and doesn’t alter the flavor of your food.
Is it safe to use Food Tamer in any kind of food?
Yes! Food Tamer is made with natural, food-grade minerals that are safe for daily use and recognized as safe by the FDA. It's especially helpful in tomato-based dishes, citrus-heavy recipes, and spicy favorites.
What makes Food Tamer different from other low-acid food products?
Most low-acid food products are specially processed or altered to reduce acidity, often compromising taste or texture. Food Tamer gives you the control—just sprinkle it into your regular recipes and enjoy the full flavor without discomfort.
How do I use Food Tamer?
It’s simple—just sprinkle into your food before you eat, stir it in, and enjoy. Each 1/8 teaspoon (800mg) reduces acid for a standard serving and works instantly to reduce problematic acids without affecting the dish. Add to a single serving or the whole dish!
Is Food Tamer good for people with reflux or acid sensitivity?
Absolutely. While Food Tamer is not a medical treatment, many people with acid sensitivity or digestive discomfort find relief using it regularly. It helps reduce the acid load of your favorite foods so you can enjoy more, worry less.
Wine Tamer
Can’t I just let wine “breathe” to reduce the acid?
Letting wine breathe might soften some tannins, but it doesn’t significantly reduce acidity. Wine Tamer is formulated to neutralize up to 90% of dietary acids before they enter your digestive tract—without changing the taste or aroma of your wine.
Does Wine Tamer change the flavor of my wine?
Not at all. Wine Tamer was carefully designed to preserve the integrity of your wine’s flavor profile. Whether it's a bold red or a crisp white, you’ll enjoy every note—just without the burn, bloat, or next-day regret.
Is Wine Tamer the same as putting antacids in my drink?
Definitely not. Antacids like TUMS or baking soda work after the acid is already in your system. Wine Tamer works before digestion, making it a proactive solution—not a reactive one. Plus, it blends seamlessly into your glass and doesn’t interfere with taste.
What makes Wine Tamer different from other wine “purifiers”?
Most wine drops or wands target sulfites or histamines. Wine Tamer specifically reduces the acidity that causes digestive discomfort, acid reflux, and bloating. It’s a different mechanism entirely, using a formula of natural minerals.
Is it safe to use Wine Tamer with every glass of wine?
Yes! Wine Tamer uses only natural, food-grade minerals recognized as safe by the FDA. There’s no sodium, sugar, or preservatives—and it’s gentle enough for regular use.
Why is Wine Tamer more expensive than baking soda or DIY hacks?
Because it works. Wine Tamer is made in small batches using a process that ensures safety, purity, and effectiveness. For about 10¢ a glass, you can enjoy your wine without the aftermath. That’s a small price for feeling great the next day.
Can I use Wine Tamer in other alcoholic beverages?
Yes, Alcoholic beverages like wine, and hard liquor generally have a pH of around 4 or lower, which means they are more acidic than coffee! Wine is often more acidic than beer.
