Why Your Throat Won’t Stop Making Mucus (And How to Fix It)
If you’ve been dealing with constant mucus in your throat, post-nasal drip, coughing at night, or a hoarse voice — you’re not alone.
Most people are told:
“Take an antacid.”
“Try allergy meds.”
“It’s just reflux.”
But that’s like putting tape over a warning light on your car.
Let’s think like engineers for a moment:
💡Every symptom has a cause.
And chronic throat mucus usually points to reflux — but not for the reason you think.
The Real Problem Isn’t Too Much Acid
It’s actually too little stomach acid.
When stomach acid is low, the digestion valve doesn’t close properly. Acid and bile creep up the throat, and your body produces mucus to protect itself.
The result?
Chronic throat irritation, coughing, and that annoying “lump” feeling.
Why Low Stomach Acid Is a Big Deal
Stomach acid is your body’s first line of defense. It kills harmful bacteria, breaks down protein, triggers digestive enzymes, and helps you absorb minerals.
When acid is weak, problems stack up fast. Digestion slows down. Nutrient deficiencies show up. Bloating and reflux increase. Immune function drops. Food sensitivities become more common.
Your body isn’t broken it’s just underpowered.
Why Antacids Can Make Things Worse
Antacids reduce stomach acid even more. That’s like turning down the heat when your food isn’t cooking.
Over time, this can lead to nutrient deficiencies, more infections, gas and bloating, weaker bones, and even rebound acid production.
Not exactly a detox win.
The Smart Fix: Restore Acid the Right Way
If you don’t have an ulcer or gastritis, supporting stomach acid can help. This usually means things like betaine HCL with meals, eating enough protein, practicing intermittent fasting, and cutting back on inflammatory grains.
If your stomach lining is already inflamed, healing comes first. Zinc carnosine, gut-friendly foods, and avoiding acid boosters for a while can make a big difference.
Heal first. Boost later.
Foods That Make Reflux Worse
Refined grains, processed “fake” meats, sugary snacks, and omega-6 heavy foods all increase inflammation and weaken digestion.
Foods That Support Healing
Grass-fed proteins, healthy fats, fermented foods, and mineral-rich meals give your gut what it needs to recover.
Your gut loves real food.
A Quick Win You Can Try Today
Before your largest meal, take a few deep breaths, eat slowly, and avoid chugging water.
This alone can improve digestion and reduce reflux.
Your stomach isn’t lazy it just needs the right signals.
