More commonly known as heartburn, people of all ages suffer from the symptoms of acid reflux and GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease.) 

Sixty percent of Americans are affected at least once a month, and 20-30% suffer at least once per week. 

So it’s no wonder that over the counter and prescription medications for heartburn alone generate billions in revenue each year. Although they address the symptom, they do not address the problem. 

Nutrition Response Testing does both by healing acid reflux holistically. 

Acid reflux is the result of a dysfunction of a part of the esophagus. The esophagus plays a vital role in digestive health, so when it doesn’t work properly, acid creeps up and causes symptoms. 

Long-term acid reflux can cause significant damage, so it’s important that the problem, rather than just the symptom, is cared for.

Symptoms of Acid Reflux/GERD

Causes of Acid Reflux/GERD

Contrary to popular belief, an overproduction of stomach acid is not responsible for your acid reflux — though it is a symptom of it. 

The most popular causes of acid reflux and GERD include: 

• Cigarette smoking 
• Consuming processed foods
• Hiatal hernia
• Low stomach acid levels
• Not chewing your food properly
• Pregnancy
• Some over the counter and prescription medications
