Can gastric issues and excessive sugar intake contribute to acid reflux?

Asked by Male, 40 ยท 3 months ago

Yes, certain gastric conditions, such as gastritis or delayed stomach emptying, can worsen acid reflux. Excessive sugar intake may increase stomach acid, cause bloating, and relax the lower oesophageal sphincter more frequently, allowing acid to flow back into the oesophagus. Managing acid reflux involves eating a balanced diet, limiting sugary and fatty foods, having smaller meals, avoiding lying down after eating, and taking medications as prescribed by your doctor.
