Always clearing your throat? The research on alkaline water spray + pepsin. This is the Costco 9.5. Alkaline water needs to be above pH 8.8. Dr. Jamie Kaufmann is a researcher in the LPR space who actually had LPR herself. She found that when you expose tissue-bound pepsin to alkaline fluids, it permanently deactivates pepsin. Pepsin is an enzyme that can come up with reflux and embed into the tissues of the larynx and it can create all those symptoms of throat clearing, coughing, voice changes, post nasal drip, throat burn. When you expose it to these highly acidic things that can activate the pepsin and make symptoms worse. So that's why we use a low acid healing phase. It's a temporary energy to help stop pepsin activation and let your laryngeal tissue regenerate without pepsin. But using alkaline water as an adjunct in between meals, drinking this in between meals is great because then you won't deactivate pepsin in your stomach when you want pepsin to break down food. So in between meals, sipping this, using this also as a throat spray is a great strategy and if you need more support with your LPR reflux, definitely head to the link in my bio. I've lots of free guides and we also offer personalized one-on-one consultations to help you build your healing roadmap.
