In Person. In the era of the new weight loss drugs, acid reflux symptoms like stomach discomfort and fiery chest pain after eating a spicy meal have become even more prevalent, often catching people by surprise. Lesser known but equally problematic symptoms such as hoarseness, sore throat, and chronic cough are also on the rise. These often point to gastroesophageal reflux disease, which affects more than 75 million Americans. Left untended, acid reflux can cause severe inflammation that leads to conditions such as gastric ulcer disease and even esophageal cancer. Join us for an enlightening discussion on the impact that weight loss drugs and various foods have on acid reflux. Learn how supplements, and healthy recipes from the Aviv’s book, The Acid Watcher Cookbook: 100+ Delicious Recipes to Prevent and Heal Acid Reflux Disease, can help relieve acid reflux symptoms, caused by either what you eat or what medicines you take. A Q&A session featuring a team of acid reflux experts will follow the talk.
