avoid caffeine, alcohol, chocolate(caffeine inside)and spicy foods. The most important thing to remember is sitting upright after eating at least 30 minutes, and never eat 1-2 hours before going to sleep. GERD-gastroesophageal reflux disease - the sphincter where your esophagus meets your stomach doesn't close completely and gastric acids and digested foods can "rise" back up into your esophagus causing erosions and/or ulcerations. When you eat certain foods your stomach is triggered to release extra acids to digest them. So if you "reflux" you've got stronger than normal acids hitting your esophagus. Fatty foods is more involved with your gallbladder, but in general it's a good idea to avoid them. Caffeine and alcohol products are just plain irritating all by themselves. Most people with GERD also have "stomach" problems like gastritis or ulcers. Also of note GERD can be caused by a bacteria H.Pylori(can be treated with an antibiotic), so have your blood checked to see if that's the problem. Most people who have GERD and/or stomach problems are prescribed a "proton-inhibitor" to reduce gastric acidity and promote healing of irritated, erosed, or ulcerated tissue in their esophagus and/or stomach (like Zantac/Protonix/Nexium) Hope that helps!

Answer 4

A new study shows if you have frequent and persistent heartburn you're probably better off sticking to a high-fiber, low-fat diet.

Researcher Hashem B. El-Serag, MD, MPH, and colleagues compared the diets of those with and without GERD symptoms or erosion of the esophagus.

They found that the daily intakes of total fat (including saturated fat) and cholesterol were significantly higher in people with GERD symptoms. The higher the number of calories consumed and fat servings, the more likely a person was to have GERD symptoms

Answer 5

I would like to suggest a wonderful book by Sherry Rogers, M.D. called: "No More Heartburn". She explains the many different CAUSES of heart burn and reflux and how to treat the causes. This is a very powerful book and may literally be a 'life saver' for you.

The book is available at Amazon.com or from the publisher at 1-800-846-6687.

Best wishes and good luck.
