Are you one of the millions of Americans suffering from acid reflux? Did you know actually 50% of Americans suffers from this? Billions of dollars are spent every single year on Medication to suppress acid reflux those burps that you get, acid coming in your mouth. 
You don’t have to spend your money on expensive medications and I know the companies that produce these medication does not want you to know what I'm about to tell you the bottom-line is you have to really understand what the root cause of the issue is.  It’s not the fact that you’re making too much acid. Some people think that.  They’re burping it up, they feel like they’re making too much of it (acid) actually the opposite is what is happening. 

Acid reflux is your body’s inability to produce the amount of hydrochloric acid (HCl) that is required to sustain the proper digestion of food and to maintain that homeostasis of the gut.  Often acid reflux is the symptom of H-pylori.  So I will discuss with you some basic and natural ways in which you can begin implementing right away to hopefully make your inside feel better, have more energy and never to worry about acid reflux.  It can be embarrassing, when you are getting the burps, the hiccups, stomach ache, the heartburn, taking your medication before you eat a meal can be pretty inconvenient.  What could we do? In a second I will be giving you a juice recipe that will really help with your Acid reflux.

But first let’s speak about tangible tips, tools and strategies you could implement in your life.

 
1. Start eating unprocessed foods. Foods from the farm, food from the land not from some foods that comes in boxes that sits on shelves for years with no expiration date. You have to start eating healthy foods from the farmers market, from whole foods preferably organic if you can get your hands on it. 

2. Probiotics.  Your gut bacteria changes every 20 minutes.  80% of your immune system comes from your gut, 90% of the serotonin which is a chemicals that is  produced in the gut so you want make sure that you’re feeding yourself good probiotics as well as prebiotics, restricted starches.  Things like celery that feeds the good bacteria because you are not what you eat; you are what your bacteria eat in your body which produces that healthy colony.

3. Fermented foods.  Fermented foods are absolutely amazing and they help feed those good bacteria in your gut. 

4. High Quality Sea Salt.  Celtic sea salt has over 88 trace minerals in it or you could get pink Himalayan Sea salt and it’s absolutely amazing for you. 

5. Start eliminating food triggers.  Food triggers are things that can trigger allergies such as sugar; dairy products, wheat, alcohol, and caffeine are more common food triggers so you should start to eliminate those from your diet as well. 

6. Apple cider vinegar.  What 99 things apple cider vinegar is good for?  This stuff is absolutely amazing! Try to get one or two table spoons a day, mixed with a little bit of water.  It’s going to give you more energy, as well as help balance out your internal digestive system.  One thing I’d recommend if you do have acid reflux may be you should try putting a teaspoon or a half a teaspoon of this in water and drink it 10 minutes before your meal.  It’s going to help build more hydrochloric acid (HCl) in your stomach so that you can digest your food properly.  Alright so those are the six things.

We’re now going to make a juice recipe.  What you will need for this recipe is one cucumber, three stalks of celery, some collard greens and a green apple; green apple has a little bit less sugar than red apple so use green apples instead of red apples.  (It’s not quite as sweet either.)  Add one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and this is the acid reflux juice recipe. It’s going help you out!
