About this episode:
The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Samara Kaufmann Aviv, co-author of The Acid Watcher Cookbook, for a fascinating discussion on acid reflux, GERD, and the often-overlooked condition known as “silent reflux.”
Ann Louise and Samara explore the surprising symptoms that many people never associate with acid reflux, including chronic coughing, throat clearing, hoarseness, post-nasal drip, and even vocal cord damage. They also discuss why some popular remedies—such as lemon water and apple cider vinegar—may not be the best choice for everyone.
Along the way, you’ll discover which foods may be quietly aggravating your symptoms, which foods are often misunderstood, and how a few simple changes in the kitchen can help calm irritation and support digestive comfort.
If you’ve been struggling with unexplained throat, sinus, or digestive symptoms—or are simply tired of the conflicting advice surrounding acid reflux—this practical and eye-opening interview is packed with tips you can put to use right away.
