Publisher's summary

This revolutionary book unleashes a brilliant new plan for permanently curing heartburn by relieving the most common cause of the problem: insufficient stomach-acid secretion. The fact is that, contrary to popular belief, heartburn is almost always associated with too little stomach acid, not too much.

As explained in this book, the current medical practice of reducing stomach acid - when stomach-acid secretion is already impaired - is a "band-aid" approach that cannot cure the disorder but only temporarily suppresses its symptoms. This quick fix may come at a long-term cost to our health that is being ignored by the pharmaceutical industry, the FDA, and the thousands of physicians who prescribe powerful acid-suppressing drugs like Prilosec, Prevacid, Tagamet, Zantac, Pepcid, and others.

Dr. Wright strongly urges us to avoid using these synthetic chemicals. Instead, he recommends a comprehensive program that involves restoring the stomach to its normal, healthy state by replacing what is missing by taking safe, inexpensive stomach-acid supplements and other natural treatments.

loved what Dr Wright shared. More people need to understand high stomach acid is not the culprit in most cases.

love this book

I was introduced to taking hydrochloric acid several years ago by my naturopathic doctor, I took it for a while but didn't really know why I was taking it, So eventually I slacked off. this book drives home and answers all of my why questions. this book is exceptional and I must read for any American or person with gut issues, which is pretty much all of us.

Great book

I cured my psoriasis and other malaise with this treatment.
After I was cured, I did a search to try to figure out what doctor is prescribing this therapy. I found this book. It was excellent and explained why those pills had cured my psoriasis. The general populace are not going to buy this book unless it receives a flashier cover. There’s so much to be gained from what’s in this book. Please put some effort into giving it a new wrapping. This will save/extend lives.
