Did you know that acid reflux is the most common chronic disease in American adults? Cases actually increased more than 100% between 2006 and 2015, and have continued to rise since. Whether you’re seeking to get rid of acid reflux for good, get off your proton pump inhibitor, or just improve your gut health overall, this is a must-listen episode. Dr. Daryl Gioffre, a nutritionist and gut health specialist whose clients include Ryan Seacrest and Kelly Ripa, has helped so many people to figure out what’s causing their acid reflux — and reverse it.

Dr. Gioffre is also a board-certified chiropractor, reiki master, certified raw food chef, best-selling author, and founder of Alkamind, a line of acid-neutralizing supplements. He also runs Kick Acid Enterprises, a virtual nutritional testing platform focusing on identifying the root cause of inflammation by restoring, balancing, and strengthening the microbiome.

We covered a lot in this episode, including:

• Why we develop food sensitivities and how to test for them
• What causes acid reflux?
• The link between acid reflux and low stomach acid
• Common symptoms of “silent reflux”
• Why you need to wean off of proton pump inhibitors, and the risks of PPI use long-term
• Can your gut health affect your mental health? And can an unhealthy gut cause brain fog?
