**🌿 Managing Acid Reflux Starts with Small Changes**

Do you often experience:
✔️ Heartburn
✔️ A sour taste in your mouth
✔️ Frequent throat clearing
✔️ A persistent cough or hoarse voice?

These could be signs of **acid reflux** or **silent reflux (LPR)**.

The good news? Many people can improve their symptoms by making simple lifestyle changes:

🥗 Eat smaller meals
⏰ Avoid eating within 2–3 hours of bedtime
🛏️ Elevate the head of your bed while sleeping
☕ Reduce caffeine and alcohol if they trigger your symptoms
🚶 Maintain a healthy weight and stay active

If your symptoms continue despite these changes, it may be time to find out **what's really causing them**.

**Peptest®** is a simple, non-invasive saliva test that detects **pepsin**—an enzyme that should only be present if stomach contents have refluxed into the throat or airways. It provides objective evidence to help support a reflux diagnosis.

Many people suffer from “silent reflux” without even knowing it.

No heartburn.
No obvious symptoms.
Just ongoing issues like:
✔ chronic cough
✔ throat irritation
✔ voice changes

What if the problem isn’t your throat… but reflux reaching it?

With Peptest, you can detect pepsin in saliva — a key marker of reflux — using a simple, non-invasive test.
