Spicy Foods 🌶️
Kicking things off with a zing, let’s talk about spicy foods. Those mouthwatering buffalo wings and spicy tacos may be doing more harm than good. The capsaicin in peppers, which gives them their signature heat, can irritate your esophagus and set off acid reflux. So, the next time you’re tempted to douse your dish in hot sauce, maybe reconsider.
Citrus Fruits 🍊
Who doesn’t enjoy a refreshing glass of orange juice to start the day? While citrus fruits are a great source of vitamin C, their high acidity can exacerbate acid reflux symptoms. Increased stomach acid is not your friend in this case. How about switching to a banana or mango smoothie for breakfast instead?
