Heal Heartburn and Lose Weight, Naturally
 
If you suffer from acid reflux, you’re not alone. More than 50 million Americans have GERD, or gastroesophageal reflux disease, and while antacids can be effective for short-term relief, they can also cause dangerous medical conditions if they’re used for more than the recommended fifty days at a time. Luckily, The Acid Reflux Solution offers a simple plan to help you gradually and safely reduce—and eventually eliminate—the need for pills while alleviating your heartburn.
 
In this combination medical guide and cookbook, gastroenterologist Jorge E. Rodriguez, MD, has teamed up with registered dietitian and food writer Susan Wyler to present a three-step program to heal heartburn naturally. This isn’t a formal diet plan—no calorie counting required—but you’ll probably shed some pounds while followingThe Acid Reflux Solution because these recipes were designed for good health. In fact, Dr. Jorge has not only healed his own heartburn since developing this plan, but he has also lost more than 30 pounds! 
 
In step one you make some simple lifestyle modifications, like raising the head of your bed, loosening your belt, and eating less but more often. These are easily achievable goals that you can start working on today. In step two, you start eating to avoid reflux. With 100 high-fiber, low-fat, portion-controlled recipes to choose from, this step is the most delicious—and surprising. The list of foods that actually trigger acid reflux is smaller than you might think, which means you can enjoy meals that you probably thought were off limits, like Cuban Black Bean Soup, Grass-Fed Beef and Portobello Blue Cheese Burgers, Asian Barbecued Chicken, and even Spaghetti and Meatballs. 
 
In the final step, you reduce the dosage and frequency of the medications you were taking to control your heartburn because you won’t need them anymore. The Acid Reflux Solution combines the latest medical research with reflux-friendly recipes to help you feel great, lose weight, and live heartburn free.

      Rodriguez, a gastroenterologist and internist, was obese and suffered regular gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) until he began to take the advice he had been giving his patients for years. Using the latest research, Rodriguez worked with nutritionist Wyler to develop over 100 evidence-based recipes and a lifestyle plan to help alleviate the heartburn and bloating caused by acid reflux. The plan includes a surprisingly short list of the foods scientifically proven to trigger a reflux reaction. Tasty and varied recipes, many of which highlight Rodriguez's Cuban heritage, concentrate on reducing fat and increasing fiber in the diet. Because obesity is a major cause of acid reflux, portion control and regular exercise are emphasized. VERDICT This plan provides simple lifestyle changes for long-term prevention of GERD along with recipes that will be a welcome addition to dinner menus--all without compromising on taste.--Pauline Baughman, Multnomah Cty.
