What Are the Signs of Low Stomach Acid?

The hot, burning feelings associated with occasional heartburn aren’t always from too much stomach acid. Low amounts can also be to blame, but there’s a simple solution — just add more.*

Neutralizing or inhibiting gastric acid can impact digestion and nutrient absorption as well as the microbiome.

You should always start by talking to your health-care provider. However, these may be signs of low acid:

  • Occasional bloating, burping or heartburn within a half-hour of eating.
  • Feeling “full” almost as soon as you’re done eating.
  • Fingernails that are weak or prone to peeling and cracking.
