Ep 105 | Get Rid of Your Heartburn Completely

About this episode

This episode explores the real causes of heartburn and reflux, emphasizing the importance of understanding underlying issues rather than just masking symptoms.

In this episode, we unpack why heartburn and reflux are so common—and why they’re rarely caused by “too much stomach acid.” We walk through the real drivers we see in patients, from nervous system dysfunction and food sensitivities to gut inflammation and infections, and why symptom-masking meds often miss the root cause. Understanding what’s actually happening can be the difference between managing heartburn and getting rid of it for good. Welcome to the Freedom to Flourish Podcast! We hope you enjoy this episode!
