In this must-listen episode of Let’s Talk Sh*t, host Lisa Garrett unpacks one of the most overlooked causes of digestive issues: low stomach acid. From heartburn and GERD to bloating and leaky gut, Lisa explains how declining stomach acid levels — especially after age 45 — can wreak havoc on your entire system.

Lisa shares:

  • Why most people blame “too much acid” when they actually have too little

  • How PPIs (protein pump inhibitors) often mask symptoms while making the root issue worse

  • The power of simple tweaks like avoiding water with meals, chewing thoroughly, and adding targeted supplements like ZYPAN

  • Personal stories and client transformations that prove increasing stomach acid can be life-changing for digestion, energy, and overall gut health
