We didn't build this because reflux is an interesting topic. We built it because we've lived with it — years of burning chests, wrecked nights, and plans canceled because of a meal. We went through the whole cycle ourselves: every supplement, every diet, every "this one trick" that a forum swore by, most of it expensive and not much of it helping.
Somewhere in that search, we started actually reading the research instead of just the marketing — and separating what's genuinely well-supported from what's just sold well. This site is the resource we wish had existed when we started: honest, sourced, and in one place, so you don't have to spend years figuring it out the hard way like we did.
