Dropping Acid:
The Reflux Diet Cookbook & Cure

This book was the first work to link the words, “reflux,” “diet,” and “cure”; Dropping Acid summarizes Dr. Jamie Koufman’s 25-years of clinical and scientific research (and discoveries) on acid reflux. It explains how LPR (laryngopharyngeal reflux) is different than GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), provides a list of reflux trigger foods and food allergies; and it reveals why a low-acid diet is important in the induction (detox) phase of treatment.

Dropping Acid provides a science-based and natural roadmap for reflux recovery making it possible for refluxers to get off of medications like Nexium and Prilosec. Also included are natural reflux remedies, as well as 75 original, delicious, and reflux-friendly recipes.

a parent’s guide to reflux

Acid Reflux In Children

There are 80 million children in America, and most have unhealthy diets that cause reflux. The great masquerader of our time, reflux can cause almost any respiratory symptom or disease; every year, tens of millions are misdiagnosed as having asthma, allergies, etc., when the real problem is reflux.

When a child has a respiratory disease and is not getting better with medical treatment, we believe parents should consider that “silent reflux” may be the problem. Why? Because it can be fixed! Hopefully, this book will help change how America eats, and guide parents to heal their needlessly sick children.
