from Fuel Different · host Sarah Williams

What if the heartburn pills you've been taking are actually making your acid reflux worse? That's exactly what happened to Sarah Williams after four years of suffering, and the truth she uncovered will flip everything you think you know about stomach acid on its head. 🎯 What You'll Learn: • Why 40% of people over 60 have dangerously low stomach acid (not high) • The vitamin A deficiency that's keeping your throat and esophagus from healing properly • How antacids can slash your stomach acid by 95% and trap you in a vicious cycle 👤 Perfect for: anyone dealing with chronic heartburn who's tired of treatments that don't work and wants to understand what's really happening in their stomach. 📍 Chapters: [00:00] Sarah Williams reveals the acid reflux lie everyone believes [01:30] Why your stomach should be more acidic than lemon juice [04:00] The 40% statistic that explains why you're still suffering [07:00] Vitamin A: the missing piece for throat healing [10:00] How antacids create the problem they're supposed to solve [12:00] Three steps to start fixing this today Sarah breaks down the pH science that proves most heartburn isn't from too much acid but too little. She explains why your body needs stomach acid at 1.5-2.0 pH to properly digest food and protect against bacteria. Plus, you'll discover the simple vitamin deficiency that could be preventing your esophageal tissues from healing, no matter how many antacids you take. This isn't another "eat less spicy food" episode. It's the research-backed explanation for why conventional heartburn treatments fail and what actually works instead. 🔔 Never miss an episode: Follow Fuel Different on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and turn on notifications.
