Foods That Cause Acid Reflux

If you’re experiencing symptoms of acid reflux, it’s time to cut back on certain foods in your diet. This article explains what causes acid reflux, how to control it, and lifestyle changes that can help.

What is Acid Reflux?

Acid reflux, or heartburn or dyspepsia, is one of the most common digestive complaints. Symptoms range from mild pain to a burning sensation in the middle of the chest that can travel up to the throat. In addition, some people complain of unpleasant mouth taste and bad breath.

Reflux occurs when acidic stomach contents back up into the esophagus. If this happens often, it can cause damage and inflammation in the esophagus and, in severe cases, lead to more serious conditions, such as Barrett’s esophagus, a pre-cancerous condition that affects the lining of the esophagus.

How Do You Know Which Foods Trigger Reflux?

Figuring out which foods cause reflux can be tricky, as there’s still some debate about which ones are the worst. Keeping a food diary is helpful because it helps you understand your habits and make changes. It also helps you identify more clearly which foods trigger your symptoms or the times of day when they’re most likely to occur.
