Acid Reflux. It's one of the buzz words today. We see many ads for drugs that supposedly 'cure' this 'excess' acid. In reality, these drugs only mask the symptoms.

Here is the real cause of Acid Reflux: The body is not producing the right amount of acid for the foods that are in your stomach. For example, proteins (like steak, chicken, etc) need to be digested at a pH of ~1.0. [pH ranges from 1.0 to 14.0, where 1 is extremely acid and 14 is extremely alkaline. 7.0 is neutral.] Proteins digest best at a pH of 1.0; however, when the stomach is at a pH of 4.0, there isn't enough acid to allow the enzymes that digest protein to work effectively. The is improper digestion. The foods can start to ferment, causing acidic bubbles that push up through the stomach and into the throat bringing the acidic stomach juices with them.

The best way to correct acid reflux isn't to neutralize the acid. The best way to treat acid reflux is to get the stomach to be producing the right amount of acid at the right time. Proper enzymes and other nutrients can give the stomach the materials it requires to function properly.

An acid reflux remedy will give the stomach the proper ingredients to produce the correct amount of acid. The stomach requires the proper digestive enzymes, alkalinity, and minerals to carry out digestion.
