Reflux keeps coming back? See what’s really going on.
Most people are told reflux is simply “too much acid.” In this short video, clinical nutritionist Douglas Mizzi walks you through the common reflux and GORD scenarios he sees every week — the symptoms, the role fermentation and gas play, and how we get to the bottom of it in clinic. If heartburn, regurgitation or bloating sound familiar, this is the best place to start.
- The everyday scenarios and triggers behind reflux & GORD
- The symptoms most people never realise are linked to reflux
- How fermentation and trapped gas drive that burning, bloated feeling
- How we work with you in clinic — and exactly what to expect
