#414 Strategies for Reflux, Indigestion and Heartburn with Christa Biegler, RD, LN

Send us Fan Mail

This week on The Less Stressed Life, I’m sharing practical and root-cause strategies for reflux, indigestion, and heartburn. While acid blockers can provide short-term relief, they often miss the deeper issue — low stomach acid, mineral depletion, and the impact of chronic stress on digestion. We’ll talk about the surprising role frequent burping plays, how to soothe symptoms naturally, and why resolving underlying stress is the key to long-term digestive health.

If you’ve dealt with heartburn, unexplained indigestion, or recurring reflux that keeps coming back no matter what you try, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on and how to fix it for good.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Why low stomach acid is often the real culprit in reflux
• How stress depletes minerals needed for digestion
• When soothing herbs can help heal the stomach lining
• The truth about H. pylori and why testing isn’t always accurate
