Is Low Stomach Acid Making You Sick? Meg Richichi

Taking the mystery out of women’s hormonal issues, struggles and the many things that dance in between.

I'm delighted to announce that aside from being able to listen to The Hormone Lifestyle Zone on iTunes and Spotify you'll also be able to watch today's podcast and future episodes on my YouTube Channel.

According to the American Gastroenterological Association, nearly 50% of our lives are affected by digestive woes ranging from gas and bloat to heartburn and acid reflux. Almost 50 million people in the US use stomach acid-blocking drugs like omeprazole and antacids. 

We are what we eat, digest, assimilate, and eliminate. The epicenter of our health and well-being starts in the gut with digestion. Low stomach acid (hypochlorhydria) is front and center of so many health issues. 

Sweet Lovelies– if you don't have a healthy gut, your hormones will never be balanced. 

During today's episode, I'll explain how low stomach acid is an underlying culprit in many health struggles, including anemia, brain fog, constipation, SIBO, parasitic infections, allergies, fatigue, infertility, and dementia. 

 Join me today as I unravel many misconceptions around stomach acid's evils and how taking HCL +pepsin or herbal bitters could be your saving grace.
