#121 | Healing Acid Reflux
from Alter Life Hosted by Dr. Benjamin Alter
As is the case with any condition, it's important to understand the ROOT CAUSE of a symptom in order to truly heal. AND, as is the case so many times, there are so many potential root causes when considering the condition of ACID REFLUX. SO many people experience burning in the esophagus, a dry cough, or some other flavor of indigestion. The conventional treatment is to SUPPRESS the production of stomach acid in the stomach. That just exacerbates the problem, and sets the stage for chronic issues related to maldigestion and malabsorption. The fact of the matter is that we NEED STOMACH ACID! More often than not, people have TOO LITTLE stomach acid, for so many issues, related to diet, stress, infections, or a number of other things. In this episode we talked about some of the root causes, and potential ways to address things to Heal FOR REAL! Some highlights include... Anatomy and physiology of stomach acid and digestion Foods to cut out to allow for optimal digestion How stress blocks your digestion Ways to boost stomach acid production The importance of "Food Hygiene" ENJOY!
