Heal GERD & Acidity Naturally: The Root-Cause Approach to Long-Term Gut Health

What is GERD & Chronic Acidity? Causes, Symptoms & Why Conventional Medicine Fails

🔹 Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a chronic digestive disorder where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing heartburn, acid reflux, bloating, chest discomfort, and even difficulty swallowing.

Millions of people rely on antacids and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to suppress symptoms, but these treatments often fail to address the underlying issues.

Common GERD & Acidity Symptoms:

✔ Persistent heartburn & acid reflux
✔ Regurgitation of food or sour liquid
✔ Bloating & indigestion after meals
✔ Chronic sore throat, cough, or hoarseness
✔ Difficulty swallowing & chest discomfort
✔ Sleep disturbances due to nighttime reflux

Why Conventional GERD Treatments Fail

❌ Antacids & PPIs Only Suppress Symptoms – These medications reduce acid production but weaken digestion long-term.
❌ Doesn’t Address Root Causes – GERD is often linked to gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and H. pylori infections.
❌ Creates Long-Term Dependence – Continuous use of acid-suppressing drugs can lead to nutrient deficiencies and gut imbalances.

The Root-Cause Approach: How Ayurveda & Functional Medicine Fix GERD & Acidity

Unlike conventional medicine, I don’t treat GERD as an excess acid issue—I treat it as a gut-brain-digestive dysfunction. GERD is often triggered by: 🔹 Low stomach acid (not high acid, as commonly believed!)
🔹 H. pylori bacterial infection & microbiome imbalance
🔹 Weak lower esophageal sphincter (LES) due to poor gut health
🔹 Chronic inflammation & food sensitivities
🔹 Stress-induced digestive dysfunction

My 3-Phase GERD Reversal Protocol:

✅ Phase 1: Remove – Identify & eliminate gut irritants, pathogens, and bacterial overgrowths using functional tests.
✅ Phase 2: Restore – Strengthen stomach acid with apple cider vinegar, betaine HCL, and Ayurvedic herbs like licorice root.
✅ Phase 3: Rebalance – Reintroduce gut-supportive foods, strengthen the gut lining, and restore digestion for long-term relief.

📌 Functional Tests That Help Identify Root Causes: ✔ H. Pylori Test – Detects bacterial infections causing reflux
✔ GI MAP Test – Assesses gut bacteria imbalances & inflammation markers
✔ Stomach Acid Test – Determines if GERD is due to low stomach acid
✔ Food Sensitivity Panel – Identifies hidden food triggers

FAQs: Common GERD & Acidity Questions Answered

Q1: Does GERD happen due to too much stomach acid?
A: Surprisingly, low stomach acid (not high acid) is often the real cause. The body produces more acid when digestion is weak, leading to reflux.

Q2: Can GERD be reversed naturally?
A: Yes! By restoring stomach acid balance, eliminating gut infections, and strengthening digestion, long-term healing is possible.

Q3: What foods trigger GERD?
A: Spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol, carbonated drinks, and processed foods are common triggers. However, triggers vary per individual, so we assess this personally.

Q4: How long does it take to heal GERD naturally?
A: Most clients experience significant relief in 4-6 weeks with a personalized approach.
