![[Part 1] The real reason behind acid reflux and heartburn?
You don’t have enough stomach acid 🤯.
…and you could be making things worse 🤭.
Oof. Truth 💣 comin’ THROUGH.
Does this sound familiar?👉🏼 If you have reflux or heartburn, you turn to Prilosec or Zantac for relief…perhaps even for MONTHS at a time to “cOnTroL the ~ACID~”.
I see this often in my practice. And it’s no surprise: sales for acid suppressors were ~$10 BILLION as of 2015.
But these worsen the very issues they try to “solve” AND make NEW problems beyond the stomach.
It’s like scraping your cut hoping it gets better 🥴. Pass 🙅🏻♀️!
Ready for the tea ☕️?
☕️WHAT YOU WEREN’T TOLD☕️
The stomach must be very ACIDIC during meals to…
✔️Neutralize threats: like pathogens, bad bacteria, parasites, before they have a chance in the more alkaline lower gut.
✔️Properly break down food: and prepare it for absorption in the small intestine.
☕️WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON☕️
Food can’t move into the small intestine until 1) it’s properly acidified OR 2) it’s forced to by more food.
💣When food sits in the stomach too long it releases GAS! That can cause a back flow - burping, acid reflux, heartburn. Ouch.
Many of my Root Cause Reset clients have these complaints before we work together. Their Custom Wellness Plans help dial in digestion without B.S. bandaids, so they can ditch the burn.
In the next post we’ll cover:
👍🏼 Better symptom relief
👍🏼 How to prevent the burn!
