Yes these medications do not address the root cause of disease and come with serious long-term side effects. One approach does not fit all! Let’s delve into the different types and causes of acid reflux and heartburn, how herbal and holistic practitioners can assess clients during the intake, and different approaches to addressing heartburn and reflux customized to the client’s patterns including SIBO, low acidity, poor signaling, sphincter issues, and gastric inflammation. We’ll focus primarily on herbal and dietary approaches. We’ll also cover the pros and cons of potential classes of herbs including mucilaginous herbs, vulneraries, astringents, antimicrobials, carminatives, bitters, sours/vinegar, and pungent herbs. Tips for supporting clients as they wean off PPIs will be included. Download the slides at https://wintergreenbotanicals.com/gerd/
