Dropping Acid: The Reflux Diet Cookbook & Cure is the first book to offer a nontraditional diet to help cure reflux, as well as the best and worst foods for a reflux sufferer. Using her extensive research, Dr. Koufman defines this shockingly common disease and explains why a change in diet can alleviate some of the most common symptoms. Her recipes use tasty fats as flavorings, not just as main ingredients and include a variety of dishes that prove living with reflux doesn’t mean living without delicious food.

An estimated 100 million Americans suffer from "acid reflux." Incredibly, nearly half of them don't know they have it.
Over the past few decades, reflux has become one of the most widespread and misunderstood, yet potentially preventable, diseases of Western civilization. It can cause untold damage to your health and pave the way for serious diseases such as esophageal cancer, currently the fastest growing cancer in the United States. Reflux was once thought of as a disease that struck only the middle-aged and older, but its victims today are as likely to be in their 20s and 30s. Its symptoms go beyond the heartburn and indigestion of yesterday to include hoarseness, chronic cough, asthma, trouble swallowing, even sinus conditions.
Why the sudden shift? As you will learn in DROPPING ACID: The Reflux Diet Cookbook & Cure, the answer can be found in our diet. In the 1970s, the Food and Drug Administration raised the levels of acid in prepackaged food as a way of discouraging bacterial growth and prolonging shelf life. Their motives might have been admirable, but they failed to anticipate the adverse health consequences. Today, many of the prepared foods and beverages we consume are just as acidic as stomach acid itself. Fortunately, there is a cure. With the new understanding of how diet affects reflux, Drs. Koufman and Stern enlisted French Master Chef Marc Bauer to create 75 delicious, healthful recipes using only "good for reflux" foods. The result is one of the world's healthiest and most sustainable diets, one that integrates science, medicine, and culinary art in a bold new way.
Consider this book your wake-up call. DROPPING ACID offers a groundbreaking approach to low-acid, low-fat eating. It will have you feeling better and living healthier-and it just might save your life.
