The U.S. spends over $330 billion annually on respiratory diseases—many actually caused by undiagnosed respiratory reflux.

Conditions like asthma, allergies, sinusitis, COPD, and sleep apnea are often misdiagnosed, as reflux typically occurs silently during sleep and is hard to detect. Most doctors, even specialists, receive little training in recognizing or treating it—leaving patients with years of ineffective care.

The gut microbiome—made up of bacteria, viruses, and fungi—plays a vital role in overall health. When unbalanced, it can lead to digestive, inflammatory, autoimmune, and even mental health issues.

Acid reflux can damage the microbiome, allowing harmful microbes like Candida to thrive and worsening symptoms. It may also trigger inflammation and weaken the digestive barrier.

While PPIs (like Nexium or Prilosec) ease symptoms, they can further disrupt gut balance. Poor diet and lifestyle habits often drive both reflux and microbiome imbalance.

A clean diet helps prevent acid reflux, but it’s not enough on its own. Even healthy foods can trigger reflux if they’re acidic, fatty, or poorly timed.

Common triggers include citrus, chocolate, alcohol, carbonated drinks, and large or late meals. Prevention requires mindful eating habits and lifestyle changes.

For those with reflux, treatment may involve dietary shifts, lifestyle adjustments, and medications like famotidine or alginates.

Teen reflux is often missed because it shows up as throat, voice, or breathing issues—not just heartburn. It's frequently mistaken for asthma, allergies, or anxiety. Teens are especially at risk due to habits like late-night eating, fast food, soda, poor posture, and stress. Symptoms include throat clearing, hoarseness, post-nasal drip, and congestion. A 4-week detox with targeted lifestyle changes can help reverse symptoms and prevent future problems.
