For the podcast this week, we discuss natural methods to cure heart burn. The current recommendation for heart burn treatment revolves around the acid suppression theory which states that heart burn is caused by too much stomach acid. This is wrong. Heart burn occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter, which when open allows food to enter our stomach, remains open when it's supposed to close. This allows stomach acid to reflux back into the esophagus which causes pain and discomfort.

Giving acid suppressing medication only treats the symptoms of heart burn, to truly cure this condition you need to add acid back to the stomach not remove it. This will trigger the lower esophageal sphincter to close and remain closed while your stomach digest meals.

The best ways to do this are supplementing with HCL pills which replace what the stomach naturally creates or you can supplement with vinegar around your normal meal times. To learn more about why heart burn isn't caused by too much stomach acid and methods to cure it naturally, listen to this week's podcast.
