We've all heard, “You are what you eat”.
However, it’s more accurate to say, “You are what you absorb.”
The truth is, many of us can't fully absorb the precious nutrients in our food. And the reason could be hypochlorhydria (low stomach acid).
Low stomach acid is a
potentially serious health issue, linked to a wide variety of symptoms, diseases and deficiencies. And doctors often misdiagnose this condition... or prescribe medications that make the problem worse!

simple remedies... and the at-home test to check your stomach acid levels.

Do you know
which fruit it is?
