In this episode, Michelle sits down with Erin Holt (the Funktional Nutritionist) to talk about all things heartburn/ reflux, stomach acid, and upper digestive system (stomach and up!). They get into the science behind why those symptoms may be occurring and how to address it! 

They discuss: 

• What is acid reflux and why is it so common? 
• Conventional vs. functional treatment approaches 
• The importance of stomach acid (yes, we actually need it!) 
• What may be causing your symptoms
• The impact our mental/ emotional energy has on our physical body
