In this episode, I’m joined by ENT surgeon Dr. Morgan Yost to break down why standard reflux testing can miss LPR, the biggest myths around silent reflux, and the lifestyle strategies that can actually help.

We also talk about the Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) and how to use it to advocate for yourself at your next ENT appointment. 😉

One of the biggest mistakes I see with LPR is people spend hundreds of dollars on supplements without understanding what they're actually trying to fix. In this episode, I'm walking you through the five supplements I most commonly use with clients for silent reflux, the specific mechanisms they target, and why pepsin (not just acid), could be the missing piece behind your persistent symptoms. ☝️

If you're struggling with throat clearing, hoarseness, chronic cough, globus sensation, or LPR that isn't improving on PPIs alone, this episode will help you build a smarter, more strategic healing plan. 🤲

Living with constant Acid Reflux, LPR, or GERD can start to feel like you’re doing everything “right”- clean diet, avoiding triggers, taking medications - yet the symptoms just won’t let up. What often gets missed is the piece controlling it all: your nervous system. 🧠

In this episode, Molly sits down with Somatic Therapist & Nervous System coach, Grace Secker, to unpack the gut-brain connection and how dysregulation can quietly drive reflux symptoms and keep your body stuck in a cycle of hypersensitivity, and how to begin shifting out of it for real, lasting relief. 😇
