In this episode I talk to Paula Werrett, who brings to the conversation her expert knowledge on the many reasons why we might develop reflux, what we should know about it, and how to tackle it. As with so many health issues, the underlying causes for reflux can be multi-faceted, which is why I was so keen to share this information with you all. Paula also covers the lesser known silent reflux, which is incredibly helpful to know about.

We cover stomach acid, but also chat about other, often overlooked, influences on upper digestive health including pepsin and bile. We discuss the impact of small intestine bacterial overgrowth (or SIBO), and Paula also shares useful information on how the gallbladder, the vagus nerve, hormones and stress influence symptoms. This episode is honestly packed with so much information!

Paula provides really useful, practical detail on the role that diet can play in the management of reflux, touching on dietary regimes such as the low FODMAP diet (including benefits and drawbacks), and foods to support good digestive health.

This is a must-listen for anyone interested in supporting optimal digestive health or looking for more information on how they can manage their symptoms of reflux better.

Please do share with anyone who you think would benefit from listening, and if you find it helpful, please do give it a 5 star rating as this is so, so helpful for getting the podcast to a wider audience and helping more people. Thank you!
