Learn about GERD

You have just been diagnosed with GERD, but what exactly is it? Gastro-esophageal reflux disease or GERD is the result of constant sipping of the stomach’s digestive acids up into the esophagus. GERD most often manifests as chronic heartburn but can also result in vomiting and nausea. If you are diagnosed with GERD, your doctor will probably recommend lifestyle modifications and medications to help you cope with the heartburn that follows from the condition. Lifestyle modifications include avoiding foods that can lead to heartburn such as peppermint, chocolate, tomatoes, citrus products, caffeine, and fatty foods. Your physician may also recommend other changes like losing weight if you are obese and ceasing use of tobacco products if you smoke.
