Acid Reflux - the Myth

In an earlier series of articles evidence was presented that acid reflux is caused not by too much stomach acid, but by not enough. Low stomach acid causes bacterial overgrowth in the gut, which in turn produces gas that puts pressure on the lower esophageal sphincter, causing it to open and inappropriately allow acid into the esophagus.

A simple, 3-step protocol for treating reflux without drugs that thousands of people have now successfully used – including people that had been on acid suppressing drugs for 20 years or more has shown huge success. This is important because acid-suppressing drugs have numerous side effects and complications.

This can be accomplished by following the “three Rs” of treating heartburn and GERD naturally:

  1. Reduce factors that promote bacterial overgrowth and low stomach acid.
  2. Replace stomach acid, enzymes and nutrients that aid digestion and are necessary for health.
  3. Restore beneficial bacteria and a healthy mucosal lining in the gut.
