Our Story: The Birth of Nutritist and Refluxter


“Sarv Kannapiran, M.D., Nutritist CEO”

At Nutritist, we believe that science and nature should work together to create effective, evidence-based supplements. Our mission is simple: to craft solutions backed by clinical research so that our customers can feel confident in what they put into their bodies. We don’t just follow trends—we dive into the science, scrutinizing studies to ensure that every ingredient we use has been tested and proven to work in real people.



Our journey began with a personal struggle. In his final year of medical school, our founder Sarv Kannapiran was diagnosed with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). Like so many others, he was prescribed proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)—a standard treatment for acid reflux. However, as a medical student, he understood the risks of long-term PPI use, including its potential side effects. He wanted a better, more natural solution.



Determined to find an alternative, he spent countless hours researching medical literature, analyzing clinical trials, and uncovering the underappreciated power of alginate therapy. After formulating what would later become Refluxter, he experienced firsthand its ability to provide rapid, effective relief—without interfering with natural digestion or causing unwanted side effects.



But he didn’t stop there. Realizing that millions of people suffer from acid reflux, heartburn, and LPR (silent reflux) without a reliable, natural solution, he knew he had to share his discovery. Nutritist was born out of this passion—to help others reclaim their comfort, confidence, and quality of life.



Today, Refluxter is more than just a supplement—it’s a testament to the power of evidence-based innovation. We remain committed to transparency, integrity, and scientific excellence, ensuring that every product we create is one we’d trust for ourselves and our loved ones.



If you’ve struggled with reflux and are seeking a natural, effective solution, we invite you to experience the difference Refluxter can make. Because at Nutritist, we’re not just making supplements—we’re making a difference, one science-backed formula at a time.
