Heartburn-Easing Foods That Fight GERD
Are you a smart snacker?
If you have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), how you eat is almost as important as what you eat. That means slow it down, no late-night snacks, and don't hit the hay right after meals. But choosing food wisely is also key.
You can curb your GERD by opting for a low-fat, high-fiber diet that's heavy on whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and lean meats. Listen to your body, and use this chart from the National Heartburn Alliance to select the best GERD-soothing foods.
