Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) a condition known as acid reflux develops when stomach acid seeps back up into the esophagus. Heartburn, for example, is a frequent side effect of this kind of situation. For example, the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) may have been injured or compromised, which might lead to this condition.
To prevent food from traveling from the stomach into the esophagus, the LES normally shuts down. The quantity of acid your stomach generates is influenced by the things you consume. When it comes to treating acid reflux or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), which is a severe and chronic type of acid reflux, eating the proper sorts of foods is essential.
Foods You Must Eat:-
-
Vegetables are good to consume
The fat and sugar content of vegetables is minimal by nature. Green beans, broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, lettuce, potatoes, and cucumbers are all excellent choices.
-
Fruits that are not citrus
Melons, bananas, apples, and pears are less likely than acidic fruits to cause reflux symptoms.
-
Meats and seafood low in fat
Acid reflux sufferers may benefit from eating lean meats like chicken, turkey, fish, and shellfish, which are low in fat and high in protein. You may bake, broil, grill, or poach them.
Avoid these foods
If You are Suffering from the Symptoms of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) You should avoid these Foods as below:-
-
Foods high in saturated fat
Inflammation of the esophagus may occur because of the relaxation of the LES, which opens the way for more stomach acid to enter the tube. These meals also slow down the emptying of the intestines, which might cause gas.
Reducing your daily fat consumption might help ease reflux symptoms, which are exacerbated when you consume a lot of high-fat meals.
-
Spicy dishes with a lot of onion and garlic
Many individuals have heartburn when they consume foods that are pungent and spicy, such as onions and garlic. These foods aren’t going to cause everyone to suffer from acid reflux.
When it comes to onions and garlic, keep a close eye on your food intake. It’s possible that some meals, as well as spicy ones, may cause you greater discomfort than others.
