Chronic bloating, constipation and endless food sensitivities? It could be low stomach acid. In this episode of the Nutrient Dense Podcast, I dive deep into the topic of low stomach acid and how it's a very common underlying root cause of chronic digestive issues like burping, bloating, constipation, and food reactions. Stomach acid plays a key role in digestion. Without it, you'll struggle to digest even the healthiest foods. In this episode we'll cover signs of low stomach acid, root causes, and natural solutions so you can optimize digestion and feel your best again.
