Yes, smoking and alcohol can increase acidity and contribute to GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease). Smoking is a major cause of GERD, while alcohol primarily triggers acid reflux episodes. Both smoking and alcohol can weaken the lower oesophageal sphincter, the muscle that keeps acid in the stomach, allowing it to flow back into the oesophagus. Smoking also reduces the amount of saliva that helps neutralize acid in the oesophagus, while alcohol can irritate the lining of both the stomach and the oesophagus. It is advisable to limit or avoid smoking and alcohol to help manage acidity and GERD.
