Modern medicine attributes acid reflux to increased acidity in the stomach
Acid lowering medications (such as proton pump inhibitors, PPIs) often come with a lot of side effects, such as mineral deficiency, osteoporosis, increased risk of infections and even dementia.
Doctors who prescribe these drugs don’t recognize the importance of stomach acid for proper nutrient absorption and sterilizing stomach contents.
So what actually causes reflux:
The lower esophageal sphincter, the doorway between your esophagus and stomach is pH sensitive.
Requires a low pH, i.e. enough stomach acid to close tightly. When there is not enough acid in your stomach, your spinster won’t shut properly and food will reflux into your esophagus giving you these symptoms.
What causes low acidity:
Mostly foods that your body has difficult digesting: Sugars, grains, high lectin vegetables and spicy foods for certain people.
Eliminate these foods, and have more of a high quality salt which contains chloride necessary to make stomach acid.
