Acid reflux is mainly caused by having NOT enough acid in your stomach, rather than having too much, as over-the-counter or prescription “acid blockers” imply. It is the acid itself that tells the lower esophageal sphincter to tighten and close off. If you don’t produce enough acid, this sphincter is going to loosen up for a little bit resulting in acid in your esophagus.
