Lyme disease, contracted from the bite of a black-legged tick carrying Borrelia bacteria, is one of the fastest-growing infectious diseases in the United States. At least 300,000 people are newly diagnosed each year in the U.S., and a shocking 1.5 million have chronic Lyme disease.

As a dietitian or CNS, you are no doubt familiar with...

In hindsight, I realize that I passively heard her say she missed me, but I wasn’t really listening. As a health coach trained under the ADAPT model, I have learned the value of practicing and honing my listening skills.

The distressing symptoms of GERD—heartburn, problems swallowing, regurgitation, sore throat, and more—have led many to turn to acid-blocking drugs, which don’t solve the underlying problems and can trigger their own set of troubling health issues. However, adopting a GERD diet that supports digestive health and addresses the root causes of GERD can help to heal your gut. I don’t believe there’s a one-size-fits-all approach to any diet, but when it comes to GERD, there are some foods that will exacerbate symptoms and others that will alleviate them. Find out what to eat and what to avoid as part of a GERD-friendly diet. Which foods improve GERD symptoms (and which foods worsen them)?
