With humor, illustrations, and empowerment, Let's Be Real About Reflux lays out in simple terms the complicated causes of reflux . The author, Dr. Steven Sandberg-Lewis, explains how his focus as a naturopathic physician is on finding the root cause of a person's heartburn, considering all aspects of the patient's medical, dietary, behavioral, emotional, and pharmacologic history. In this book, GI physiology is described, standard treatments are critiqued, and diagnostic tests are explained. This thorough evidence-based review of lifestyle and natural medicine options for treatment is a treasure for physicians and heartburn sufferers alike.

Reviews for Let's Be Real About Reflux, Getting To The Heart of Heartburn

Finally, a book that offers real solutions for reflux sufferers. Instead of a one-size-fits-all acid suppression approach, you are taken on a journey of understanding the various reasons why your body is giving you reflux symptoms. Surprise, not all of them are acid related! I will definitely be recommending this excellent resource to my reflux patients. -Nirala Jacobi, ND The SIBO Doctor, Host of the SIBO Doctor Podcast Director, Biome Clinic, New South Wales, Australia Thank you, Dr. Sandberg-Lewis, for the gift of this book. The conventional approach to treating reflux is not only inadequate but harmful. It not only makes no attempt to find root causes but actually ignores basic GI physiology. There is a great need for the depth of insight and practical treatments of Let's Be Real About Reflux. -Leo Galland, MD, Board-certified in internal medicine Author, The Allergy Solution Pioneer in studying the impact of intestinal microbes (the gut microbiome) and intestinal permeability ('leaky gut ) on health and disease This is amazing!!! Dr. Sandberg-Lewis has written the most complete and useful text about the common condition of reflux. The text is not only inclusive and detailed but also brings readers the information they need to make decisions about diagnosis and treatment options. -Paul S. Anderson, ND Naturopathic physician, author of Cancer: The Journey from Diagnosis to Empowerment Creator of ConsultDrA.com, a continuing education website and Advanced Applications in Medical Practice (AAMP) Conferences The main paradigm for acid reflux treatment has been simplified to PPIs for far too long. In this extremely timely and needed book, Dr. Sandberg-Lewis explains the causes of heartburn and offers many valuable and lesser-known treatments. Well-organized and easy to read, Let's Be Real About Reflux evaluates the research, makes the complex simple, and does it all in a fun and light-hearted way. This is the must-have book for both patients and practitioners dealing with reflux. -Allison Siebecker, ND, MSOM, Lac Instructor, Advanced Gastroenterology, National University of Natural Medicine IBS Board of Advisors and Faculty Member, GI Health Foundation Author of the free educational website siboinfo.com Dr. Steven Sandberg Lewis is a legend in the field of natural approaches to gastroenterology. His books are required reading for any natural medicine practitioner and have always sat prominently, well-worn and well-loved, on my desk. Let's Be Real About Reflux is an indispensable resource for gastroenterologists as well as those suffering from this common malady. -Joshua Z. Goldenberg, ND, FABNG Researcher, Brain Injury Research Solutions and Helfgott Research Institute Naturopathic Doctor, Goldenberg GI Center Open the book, start reading, and take the deep dive into reflux. -Leonard B. Weinstock, MD, Board-certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology Physician, Specialists in Gastroenterology, St. Louis, Missouri Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri
