DIET MODIFICATIONS
REDUCE ANXIETY & STRESS
QUIT SMOKING
Avoid foods like peppers, citrus, tomatoes,
fried foods, saturated fats, mint, chocolate,
and caffeine, as these can cause acid reflux.
Pick a diet high in fruits, vegetables, low-fat
dairy products, lean proteins, and other
nutritious foods.
Anxiety and stress can aggravate acid
reflux symptoms. Exercise, meditation,
deep breathing exercises, & doing things
you like are all great ways to reduce
stress & improve mental health.
Smoking reduces saliva production and
weakens the valve that keeps stomach
acid from entering the esophagus, which
increases the likelihood of heartburn.
TRY OUT HERBAL TREATMENTS
While herbs like chamomile, licorice,
marshmallow, and slippery elm have been
used for GERD, their effectiveness is not
well-established.
GET ON A WEIGHT LOSS PLAN
Maintaining a healthy weight or reducing
extra weight begins with two simple steps:
eating a balanced diet and engaging in
150 minutes of physical exercise per week.
