Hypochlorhydria (Low Stomach Acid): Causes, Treatment, and More

My theory is we've done this to ourselves through years of abusing our digestive systems consuming 6-8 meals/day year after year. My belief is that this type of eating causes our guts to secrete less acid over time. As we age we naturally secrete less acid anyway.
