FLORE Acidity Programme

A clearer plan for recurring acidity and reflux.

Flore looks at recurring acidity, reflux, gas, food responses, meal timing, stress, sleep, and gut health to understand your triggers and build a personalised plan for symptom management.

What this page can help you decide

Reflux, burning, gas, meal timing, stress rhythm, and clinical context. These patterns can guide a clinical conversation, but they do not identify a diagnosis or prove that a microbiome imbalance is the cause.

Should I start with a programme or a medical assessment?

Start with medical assessment when symptoms are new, persistent, severe or accompanied by warning signs. A support programme may be useful after the clinical question and safe next step are clear.

Do I need microbiome testing?

Not routinely. Commercial microbiome testing has limited proven clinical usefulness and cannot diagnose the cause of these symptoms. Consider it only after discussing what question it would answer and whether the result would change care.

When to consider this

Start with the patterns that keep repeating.

These symptoms do not confirm a diagnosis on their own. They are signals that, when looked at together, can help uncover what may be contributing to your symptoms.

01

Burning or discomfort after meals

02

Sour burps, reflux or regurgitation

03

Gas, bloating or upper-abdominal heaviness

04

Acidity triggered by spicy, heavy or late meals

05

Reflux that disturbs your sleep

06

Needing antacids repeatedly for relief

Why Flore

A programme before a product.

Flore does not begin with a bottle or a generic elimination diet. It begins with symptom rhythm, food context, stress, sleep, medical history, and microbiome testing when it can change the decision.

01

Recurring acid signals

Reflux can need a review of eating habits, medicines and appropriate treatment; frequent symptoms should not be dismissed.

02

Clinical context

Microbiome findings can be reviewed alongside symptoms, but a report does not diagnose reflux or its cause.

03

Indian food response

Spice, rice, dal, dairy, fried foods, meal gaps, tea, coffee, and late dinners are mapped into your plan.

04

Stress and sleep rhythm

Acidity can worsen when stress response, sleep debt, and meal timing keep the gut reactive.

How it works

From scattered symptoms to a clear protocol.

01

Understand your acidity pattern

We map when burning, reflux, gas, and heaviness appear, including food, stress, sleep, and medication history.

02

Test what needs testing

Your clinician considers tests when needed to investigate other causes. A microbiome report alone does not diagnose reflux or explain every symptom.

03

Build the food-response protocol

Expert doctors review the case while nutrition addresses meal timing, triggers, fibre, and gut support.

04

Stabilise and maintain

Your plan evolves from symptom control toward more confident eating and long-term gut rhythm.
