The Acid Watcher Diet

A 28-Day Reflux Prevention and Healing Program

By: Jonathan Aviv MD FACS

Narrated by: Jonathan Aviv MD FACS

Dr. Aviv guides listeners through healthy dietary choices with targeted recipes, helping them balance their bodies and minds for optimal health and break acid-generating habits for good.

Do you suffer from abdominal bloating; a chronic, nagging cough or sore throat; postnasal drip; a feeling of a lump in the back of your throat; allergies; or shortness of breath? If so, odds are that you are experiencing acid reflux without recognizing its silent symptoms, which can lead to serious long-term health problems, including esophageal cancer.

In The Acid Watcher Diet, Dr. Jonathan Aviv, a leading authority on the diagnosis and treatment of acid reflux disease, helps readers identify those often misunderstood symptoms while providing a proven solution for reducing whole-body acid damage quickly and easily.

His 28-day program is part of a two-phase eating plan, with a healthy balance of both macronutrients (proteins, carbs, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants), that works to immediately neutralize acid and relieve the inflammation at the root of acid reflux.


This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF that contains diagrams, food lists, shopping lists, recipes, meal plans, HIIT exercises, menus, and additional reading from the book.

In depth analysis of herd

This book is well written. Some nitpicks, if you are healing from gerd, you might need to be more restrictive than what Dr Aviv recommends.

I have been a patient of Dr Aviv, and the book is honestly better than his clinic - he is always busy, has too many patients to really entertain full explanations with them.

Fantastic book for GERD & Acid Reflux!

This book has so much valuable information for ACID REFLUX! Highly recommend this book to anyone who are suffering from Acid Reflux! Truly appreciate Dr. Aviv for publishing this book to help people who are suffering from Acid Reflux and also giving awareness to people about the importance of eating real organic food. I have learned so much from this book.

Great info to raise awareness re: acidity!!

Excellent information about acidity and our diets - things we often eat without realizing what it may be doing to our bodies!! Acidity is bot really something we discuss very often and something we should be talking about more!

This book very much helped to raise my awareness of things I’m eating that could be causing damage to my body and I’ll be trying the AWD eating plan to see how my body responds including AI issues I’ve dealt with for decades. Thx Dr. Aviv!

The acid watcher diet

Excellent advice! I enjoyed listening to this book and learned a lot about my eating habits. I followed the diet and 3 days into the plan I started feeling more in control. I recommend this book to those seeking acid reflux relief.

PH is the under considered, most important factor…

Thank you for showing me the path to healing my chronic cough! You light 💡 the torch for this under minded chronic problem…
