Reflux... A Functional Approach

from A Functional Approach with Dr. Jim Chialtas · host Jim Chialtas, DACM, L.Ac.

In this 34th episode I took a personal request from a friend to discuss concepts related to acid reflux, or GERD. The question was, "How to manage acid reflux/gut health without PPIs?" PPIs are Proton Pump Inhibiting drugs such as Prilosec, Nexium, and Prevacid (to name a few). In this episode we will discuss the north to south, aka. Mouth to anus approach to the digestive system and just how important it is to keep this digestive progression well tuned. Topics include chewing our food, stomach acid production, pancreatic enzyme release, bile release, and more! Hint... It is all dependent upon having healthy levels of stomach acid!
