How it works

Step 01

Swallow

A vitamin-sized capsule.

Step 02

Measure

Real-time pH.

Step 03

Know

Your stomach acid.

The acid threshold

Function follows pH.

Drag the scale. Each job of stomach acid holds across a range of pH, then falls away as the stomach loses its acidity.

Why it matters

Every condition above has one thing in common: nobody measured the acid.

What changes when you know

A single test can reshape the conversation between you and your practitioner.

Stop guessing

Replace trial-and-error prescribing with a direct measurement of what your stomach is actually doing.

Understand why

If acid is already low, suppressing it further makes things worse. The data shows which direction to go.

Address the root

Bloating, reflux, SIBO, and deficiencies can all trace back to one cause. Knowing your acid status changes everything.

Find confidence

No more wondering whether the medication is right. You and your practitioner decide based on real evidence.

The technology

What your practitioner sees.

As the capsule streams your stomach’s pH, the Acid Tracker platform plots it live — every shift, as it happens. Your practitioner watches the full response unfold in real time, then walks you through exactly what it means for you.
