Introducing Acid Reflux Diet Apps. It was created to help patients with Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), also known as acid reflux, or chronic heartburn is a long term condition where stomach contents come back up into the esophagus resulting in either symptoms or complications. Acid reflux is the flow of stomach acid back into the esophagus. A common symptom is a heartburn - a burning discomfort felt anywhere from the stomach up into the chest and throat.

About GERD:

Risk factors include obesity, pregnancy, smoking, hiatus hernia, and taking certain medicines. Medications involved include antihistamines, calcium channel blockers, antidepressants, and sleeping medication. It is due to poor closure of the lower esophageal sphincter (the junction between the stomach and the esophagus). Diagnosis among those who do not improve with simpler measures may involve gastroscopy, upper GI series, esophageal pH monitoring, or esophageal manometry.

Treatment is typical via lifestyle changes, medications, and sometimes surgery. Lifestyle changes include not lying down for three hours after eating, losing weight, avoiding certain foods, and stopping smoking. Medications include antacids, H2 receptor blockers, proton pump inhibitors, and prokinetics.

Your lifestyle must be implemented along with this type of diet, do exercise regularly, have good enough sleep every night (sleep early), quit smoking, eat more natural low in fat and sugar such as fruits, veggies, whole grains, non-fat dairy, and fish. Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Don’t lie down or go to sleep after eating. Eat earlier in the evening, preferably before 7.00 pm.

Following these acid reflux diet and lifestyle-related modifications can greatly increase your chances of living without the unpleasant symptoms of acid reflux, and, in the long run, avoiding the possibility of serious health consequences.
