Dr.Park, there is one more very important element to this equation. I had acid reflux for most of my life. I was put on a proton inhibitor called Losec and I continued taking it for years. However, I am now much healthier finding intermittent fasting to help and a better diet, but by accident I discovered something so very simple. My covid challenge, back when a lot of us were isolating in our homes, was to learn a new culture and language. I chose Korean. With it came the Korean eating style. I discovered Kimchi. I had tried many probiotics to help my acid reflux but none worked. I did not know when I first tried Kimchi that it was a probiotic. What I noticed was that my acid reflux was diminished. I ate Kimchi every day, without taking my Losec, for a week and I had no acid reflux anymore. It's been 11 months since my discovery of Kimchi, and that it is a live fermented probiotic and extremely helpful with acid reflux. I now make my own batches of Kimchi and I eat it every day. Perhaps discuss how active probiotics can neutral stomach acid and return it to its natural balance. Thank you for all your hard work to help us. 🙏🌹
Curious if it was the probiotics or the cabbage. Some say that because cabbage has S-Methylmethionine, which helps in acid reflux.
@@youlknowmyname I believe it is the Kimchi. Before I discovered Kimchi, I normally ate a lot of cabbage. Fresh cabbage is always in my fridge and I consume it at least 5 out of 7 days per week, cooked or raw in salads. I ran out of my homemade Kimchi this past 3 weeks and even though I consume cabbage almost daily, my acid reflux is returning. Perhaps it doesn't work as a probiotic/acid diminisher for everyone, it works for me. I just made a new batch of Kimchi yesterday. 🌹

Great video with lots of good info. After reading your book on CPAP, I've now realized how my snuffy nose with swollen turbinoids and my severe GERD is interrupting my sleep patterns. You have some great suggestions and I will try them. I have really worked at changing my dinner diet to reduce the acid reflux but I had not connected it to my stuffy nose until watching your video.. Thanks for all your helpful tips.

Thank you doctor, for your informative video
Hello from South Africa xxx
I’ve suffered from acid reflux for decades and I’ve also had lots of stress in my life as well as sleep apnea. This video makes tons of sense I appreciate everything you said, thank you
Thank you doctor, I am very grateful to you ❤
Very good information. I snore a lot and now getting Acid Reflux.
If nothing else works, try eating red apples for a few days to treat hyper acidity in the stomach and acid reflux.
Great informations! Thank you very much for your time and expertise.
My pleasure!
@@doctorstevenpark I have Gerd, Acid reflux, Erosion Esophagus, Low Stomach Acid and
Hiatal Hernia . I am concerned for all of these , but the 2 that worries me the most , would be
Acid reflux and 100% Erosion Esophagus , I don't want it to become Barrett's Disease .
I have an appt in 3 days to see what my "EGD" results are , doctor took biopsy .
I know you are busy doctor , but my splinter or Les . I just want a normal life, haven't had it in
3 1/2 years. I been on youtube trying to figure out , how to heal everything , and you were

Thank you
So glad you mentioned low carb! Keto and fasting have eliminated GERD completely!!
I feel keto mess me up with having my gall bladder and stones and other health issues.

Keto is the worse diet lol please watch videos with dr greger, dr klaper, dr esselstyn, dr neal barnard and barbara o’neill. You will learn alot about health. I love dr berg but the keto diet is going to kill people in the long term.
Thank you Doc! 🔥⚡💥👊👍💪!
Very interesting
Very brilliant Dr I have stuffy nose
Yes doc..i have both
Thank you for sharing this. I am in my mid twenties and was diagnosed with UARS, I have fatigue, acid reflux and low vitamin D, and IBS. I have changed my diet and have lost weight. Now just need to treat my reflux and introduce more supplements.
I have both doc, I am a mouth breather
Thank you for your vedeo,
I am having a acid reflux for nearly a year now,
The doctor always precribed the gastric tabllets for me, still the same.
Am trying some herbal remedies now,hope it works.
Thank you.
I have both. Thanks for your videos. I have been suffering from both sleep apnea and stuffy nose right before bed. I did get a nose procedure to correct a deviated septum and has made it better. I have tried using my CPAP but can't seem to breathe outwards without issue. I Amy going to read your book and hope it helps. Yes these issues have taken a serious toll on me but thanks for your videos. I also have reflux issues as well.

Great information and video.
Thanks for watching!
Yes I have both.
Thank you for this. Two years ago I got an ENT scope - I have wearing away of lower throat caused by LPR. Struggling through 20 years of stomach issues. But now they say two years later it may be causing lung stiffness. Dont drink smoke I take high vitamins D doses in tranches. Will try melatonin. Will raise my bed. Thanks for a clear and caring video. I avoid PPIs but now Im so desperate cuz I have months of breathing issues (sinus swelling) to complicate matters. Thank you again.
Yes
You are so right about the nose . 😢
also bad posture can cause reflux too, if you slouching all the time it can put pressure on your stomach so your les weaken
Dr Park thank you so much for this information it is very enlightening & quite logical, I have sinus issues & can understand how it can enhance the acid reflux & will work on a way to reduce the sinuses reactions & see if that will assist in my acid reflux
Yes I have both
I had a relief from my GERD for the first time in 10 days after starting the d-limonine, betaine hcl, and bile salts.
How much of each and how often? Helps acid reflux?
Thank you doctor. I never knew that stuffy nose can cause acid reflux, I have sinus issues from very long time and started having acid reflux from last few years. I guess I need to get rid of sinus issues first
You can treat acid reflux by eating red apple delicious. Try it for a few days. It works.
Great video!!! I lack Vitamin B12 ig that could be one of the root cause
Great
Yes - i have a stuffy nose AND acid reflux...
I have a test on H Pylori , it was negative. I didn't know that Melontin tighten up the Esophagus ,
Try slippery elm powder on empty stomach,four to five tablets.
Your generosity towards my bad breath and acid reflux is incomparable, you assured me of getting healed just within 2 months and it was so. Thanks a lot Dr Emovon on UA-cam I will keep letting the world know about your good work and about your UA-cam channel…
I have acid reflux sometimes and a stuffy nose mostly at night.
Yes I've hiatus hernia stuffy nose I taken supplements vit d I walk 10 thousand steps a day I was getting shortened breath I've lost a stone in weight also and symptoms have improved improved
Yes i have stuffy nose and acid reflux
Yes, sinus troubles and acid reflux. Definately, notice a strong link to stress.
You can treat acid reflux by eating red apple delicious. Try it for a few days. It works.
Yes, I do have breathing problems and reflux issues that have sort of gone together. I always thought they were disconnected but your video is making me see that they have all been part of the same set of issues (I believe).
GERD also has a lot to do with intra-abdominal pressure. If someone is trying to inhale or holding their breath when the body needs to exhale, then the pressure will just force the contents of the stomach back up the esophagus in order to make the room that it needs. But doctors won't tell you this, of course.
@@cinnamongirl3070So how do you fix this?
@@bruhhh._.150 Inhale during trunk extension, exhale during trunk flexion. You want to work with your diaphragm, not fight against it. Look up diaphragmic movement. Tons of videos on UA-cam. Practice breathing exercises so this way of breathing becomes a habit.

Yes I have stuffy nose with acid reflux and I cough all the time.
I have both
I have terrible allergies and experience reflux often. I would like to think two are related but only sometimes. Usually an antihistamine like Benadryl helps but it appears Ive developed an intolerance to Benadryl after over use. So I have to sometimes just get through the episode and avoid Benadryl for a time.
Yes, i do have acid reflux and stuffy nose
Treat acid reflux by eating red apples. Try it for a few days and you will see positive results. It works.
I do have stuffy nose, chronic cough, overweight …. Occasional cough now by taking Omeprazole
Great video straight to the point.years ago i felt like into a depression than my doctor said now i have anxiety.but ive changed my diet it works big relief.taking natural supplements
Great to hear! A significant number of people do very well with natural products. But some people will need to step up to other various other options.
@@doctorstevenpark iam going to look at your video and buy supplements this weekend.thank you doc
I have both sir
I have a stuffy nose, LPR, and OSA. I have noticed a high correlation between the number of events I have in a night, and severity of LPR symptoms. It all seems linked - stress, sleep, relux. It also seems to be multiple directional. I was shocked when I found out that I had OSA because I am thin and thought that it was only for people who are overweight (same with reflux).
Although being overweight raises your risk of sleep apnea, you can be young, thin, female, and not ever snore and still have severe obstructive sleep apnea. My main point is that it's mainly due to jaw structure narrowing, which I describe in my book, Sleep, Interrupted.
Do you have advice for acid reflux combined with gastritis ? Thank you!
A cheap and a natural remedy for hyper acidity in the stomach and acid reflux are red apples. Eat red apples for a few days and you will see positive results. It works.
1. Do whatever you can to lower your stress levels. 2. Avoid anything that can lower acid production such as stress or medications. 3. Optimize nasal breathing. 4. Take care of any snoring or obstructive sleep apnea, as well as lose weight if you’re overweight. 5. Get your vitamin D to a level above 60. Get more sunlight and/or supplement if needed. 6. Go on a very low-carbohydrate diet. This will help you to lose weight, as well as many other health benefits. 7. Promote your body’s melatonin production by avoiding screens before bedtime and as much sun exposure as possible for vitamin D and mitochondrial melatonin production.
Pls what's the relationship of nasal breathing to acid reflux,?

@@cherie2174what about heart burn??
I was told by an ENT that using fluticasone in combination with Afrin will help unstuff your nose + you won't get addicted to the Afrin (which would happen when used alone). I have been doing this for over a month and haven't noticed any stuffiness during the day. Per my fitbit my deep sleep has increased.
It sounds like you're on the verge of being addicted. Afrin is not meant to be used for more than a few days. Since you're already on the Fluticasone, talk to your doctor about stopping Afrin. If you have rebound nasal congestion, then there are other ways to wean you off Afrin. Ultimately, it sounds like you'll need to see an ENT to address your stuffy nose. Good luck!
I have both, sinusitis and acid reflux. And I easily get a sore throat from sweets.
Hello Doctor, I have s question, thank you for answer in advance..... My can I take vitamin D with calcium?
I have both acid reflux as well as constant blocked nose, constant breathing issues and a chronic cough, bad sleep patterns, snoring, frequent urination at night and am always tired. Your videos are very interesting and I am going to try your suggestions.
Thank you for making these informative videos.
How do you control your symptoms
I have the same
@@majidhargey2104 I got rid of acid reflux by eating red apple delicious. Try it. It works.
Same as me
I went through absolute hell with sinus issues for years until I went to a homeopath who said I need to treat my stomach. Treating acid reflux fixes my sinuses.
Is it possible to need Septoplasty but then it no longer being necessary once jaw surgery (to fix recessed jaw) has been performed or can jaw surgery not resolve a septic deviation?
Along with all that you said, would betaine hcl help?
How can You find out if You have low stomach acid? How much melatonin should I take?
What does acid reflux have to do with asthma
I have stuffy nose reflux and a hiatia hernia
Hi Doctor Steven
You seem to be very knowledgeable person, I have a question if you kindly guide me in this respect. 4 years ago I talked to my ENT specialist about a small lump on my neck. He did biopsy and ultra sound and told me he wasn't sure what it was but it's about 4 cm ad not benign. 2 years later he did again ultra sound and didn't tell me anything about it, now he sent me again for ultra sound and told me the nodules on my thyroid are growing and it is now 5 cm and must be removed immediately since it may be cancerous. At this time I asked him so many questions like: why he wasn't sure what it was 4 years ago. why he said it is not canserous. Why he didn't suggest any medication over the years and now he wants to perform surgery right away????? Well I told him I need some time to think about it because, I don't feel any problem with breathing, eating and speaking and what happens if after the surgery it goes other way around? I shal appreciate your reply.
Can you recommend how to fix hiatal hernia… thank you
Before looking into any conventional treatment options, check to see if you have obstructive sleep apnea. Even if you undergo a Nissen procedure, the hernia may come back if the apneas are not treated.
Wow, Dr. Park, your video is packed with valuable information! Your suggestions are fantastic, and I can't wait to give them a shot, especially with Planet Ayurveda's
Acido Plan Syrup. Thanks for sharing this!
Doctor Park your videos very informative more questions to ask my doctors. I am someone that has seasonal allergies, stuffy nose, and the recently diagnosed with sleep apnea that I probably had it for years. At times at night my sleep gets interrupted by having a cough up what I thought was phlegm on my throat. Could it be from undiagnosed GERD?
Dr Park I had my gallbladder removed and developed Gerd I was placed on ppi s which caused kidney damage stage 3 I do not have sleep apnea I am at wits ends on how to control my acid reflux mine seems to be the silent type of acid reflux I take vitamin d3 and b12 my gastroenterologist gastroenterologist
Great Video! Very interesting about the melatonin. I would not have put those two things together, but since i stopped taking melatonin my reflux has definitely become noticable at night. Will go back to low dose and see how that goes. Trying to get one's nose to work is a much more difficult thing. After multiple (unsuccessful) surgeries to improve that, i'm going to do a cpap trial. Hope it helps with keeping the nostrils open as my sleep ENT says it helps 20% of patients with that. Wish there was a steroid spray that worked for me, have tried them all and even specially compounded steroid rinses.
Good luck with your CPAP device. One thing to consider for CPAP to work better is nasal surgery. It won't cure your sleep apnea but it can make CPAP much more comfortable. The same for mandibular advancement devices.
how was you feeling when you took melatonin , did you noticed a differences ?

Do you have any videos on how to come off ppi? Would you recommend Betaine hcl with pepsin?
Dr Park, whenever I get a sore throat and heartburn it is followed by hiccups - any explanations why ?
After 3 years of acid reflux, trying everything, started a carnivore diet and after only 2 weeks forgot about that I had an acid reflux!! Will keep it for few more months until all the ulcers in the stomach and trachea clear , and little by little will start adding other foods and see what I tolerate and what not.
Am suffering with GERD. What is that diet composed of please?

nice video. try amalaki rasayana, shatavari churna, kamdudha ras , yashtimadhughan vati of Planet Ayurveda to manage acidity
I do get stuffy noise at night..and acid reflux. Im so tire in the morning
I am suffering both acid reflux and nasal congestion while sleep. I feel fatigue and irritated during the next day and trouble to focus on office work.
I find it humorous that UA-cam would lead off this video with an antacid commercial.
Disgusting of them to do this!
I have acid reflux I swallow as if their is something that block my throat my stomach always in pain I took some medication tablets. I control my diet not to eat much
I have acid reflux, sinus problem, stuffy nose etc. Need to get rid of acid reflux. HELP
Great video! I was recently diagnosed with EoE. The doctor has me on 20mg of PPIs (can't tolerate intial 40mg) that I can only take every other day otherwise I have body pain and am tired. I'm still more tired the days I take it. I've seen the research of long term use. It doesn't look good. In your video you suggest not taking the PPIs is that correct? The goal is reducing the eosinophils and inflammation in the esophagus so continued stricture doesn't take place. Aside from your video, any thoughts on this? And, luckily I don't have Sleep Apnea.
My only symptom is minor throat pain thats it, i did an at home Viome stool test which showed my bile acid production isn’t optimal and also my hydrogen sulfide
I was going to hit the "save" button, and I accidentally hit the "report" button! It was an accident! Dear UA-cam, undo! Dear Dr. Park, I hope I didn't cause any trouble! It's a great video, thanks!
I hate when that happens. I've done it on other videos.
@@susanlee8609 Thank you for letting me know it's not just me! 🤪
I have stuffy noise and acid reflux.
I have had acid reflux for a number of years and I have tried everything than have been manufactured for it. The things I found that worked are digestive enzymes and probiotics. Ofcourse I did the other things such as raising my bed head, no late dinners and avoiding all acid inducing foods. The only thing that I don't know how to control is stress. Do you have any suggestions for stress control? Thank you.
Hi......ur post stood out to me as stress is my biggest challenge as well after decades of trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Turns out that my husband is a narcissist. I don't know if what ur stress comes from but I now know where mine comes from.
Try typing in ur stress on here or Google and just c what comes up. That's how I learned about 6 yrs ago. See if u can do searches on what's happening in ur life because when u know, ur better able to address it in many ways.
Just wanted to c if I could help. Hope u find some help with whats causing it. Good luck. 👍🏻
Thanks for your great reply. Only recently did I appreciate how important stress and emotional disturbances are to total mental and physical wellness. After I read the book, The Body Keeps The Score by van der Kolk, I have a new perspective on these issues. I also saw some dramatic changes in life outlook and stress levels after seeing what my wife as a life coach is seeing in her clients.
@doctorstevenpark I recently tried stomach enzymes that also contained betaine HCL and it is working well on my acid reflux. It took about 3 to 4 days before it began working, but once my body adjusted to it, I got relief. I am also taking probiotics and ginger. Thank you Dr. Park.
Thank you for this Dr. Park. Just one question ... At 13;00 you say that "low vitamin D also has been shown to alter the gut biome, and may even prevent stomach cancer." Low levels of vitamin D may prevent stomach cancer? Am I understanding that incorrectly?
I have sleep apnea and reflux and have never been thinking about the connection between them. My sleep apnea gets better and can even disappear when I loose weight, although I am not overweight. But reflux gives me also sleep apnea because it irritates my throat and it swells and makes mucus
