Have you ever wondered how to get OFF your PPI safely - without hurting your body in the process?

This is one of the most common questions I get from my clients who are struggling with acid reflux.

And I get it.

I’ve worked with clients on 1 PPI a day… 2 PPIs a day… even 3 PPIs a day PLUS tums and antacids stacked on top.

I’ve worked with a client told by doctors at the University of Michigan that there was nothing left they could do for her.

And I’ve gotten clients like her all the way down to ZERO PPIs.

Here’s the thing: if you’re on a PPI, your acid reflux is probably pretty severe. Stopping cold turkey can leave you in pain, afraid to eat, and stuck in fear.

So - how do you get off PPIs safely?

That is exactly what we’re covering today.

On today's episode, we're diving into:

• The #1 thing stopping you from getting off PPIs
• How to taper off PPIs without pain
• Stories of clients who’ve ended 20+ and even 40+ years of acid reflux with this approach

If you’re ready to finally end your reflux for good - this episode is for you.

I get asked about hiatal hernias all the time inside my program. And usually, the fear goes something like this:

“My doctor told me I have a hiatal hernia, and that means I’ll always have acid reflux.”

Unfortunately, this has caused a LOT of anxiety for my clients.

Fortunately - it's WRONG.

You can 100% get rid of acid reflux - even with a hiatal hernia. And you may not need surgery to do it.

On today’s episode, I’m breaking down everything you need to know about hiatal hernias:

• ALL the symptoms of hiatal hernia (including the ones you may have never heard of)
• The hidden causes of hiatal hernia—why it happens in the first place
• Natural hiatal hernia treatments that don’t involve invasive surgery
• And how I reversed my own hiatal hernia during pregnancy - and saved myself months of pain and reflux

If you’ve been told that your hiatal hernia will never go away, or that it’s the reason you’ll always have acid reflux, I hope this episode gives you hope and shows you EXACTLY what you can do about it.

Are you tired of chasing your acid reflux symptoms with PPI's, annoying food restrictions like the GERD diet, or hyper-vigilance about when and how much food you eat?

When you ask your doctor if there's ANYTHING else you can do to help your acid reflux, do they tell you that you just need to pop another antacid, avoid trigger foods, or sleep on a wedge pillow?

Do you wish there was a solution to acid reflux that was permanent, so you could eat late at night without worrying about a reflux flare, or that you could eat your favorite foods again without feeling punished for it later?

If you said yes to any of these questions, then this episode is for you.

On today's episode, my goal is to lay out acid reflux in one MASTER episode so that, by the end of it, you can have a map for exactly how to find, and deal with, the root cause(s) of your acid reflux.

In this episode, I’m talking about:

• The real causes of acid reflux and GERD symptoms (and why it’s not “too much acid”)
• The difference between acid reflux, GERD, LPR, and silent reflux — and why this episode can help ALL of these diagnoses
• Why standard acid reflux drugs (PPIs, acid reducers) give quick relief but cause long-term problems
• How the acid reflux diet and GERD diet miss the root cause
• And, most importantly, 2 steps to reversing your acid reflux (for good!)

If you're tired of relying on medication to manage your acid reflux and want freedom from your stomach terror - then this episode is for you.
