Can Potted Meat Be Consumed When Suffering From GERD?
Question: Hi my name is XXXXXXX can I eat potty meat with acid flux
Brief Answer:
Not an absolute contraindication, go for it
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
In GERD, Potted meat is not an absolute contraindication, but like all other canned food products, its also advised to be taken in a range and not in excess.
In GERD following lifestyle modifications help.
Losing weight (if overweight)
Avoiding alcohol, chocolate, citrus juice, and tomato-based products
Avoiding peppermint, coffee, and possibly the onion family
Eating small, frequent meals rather than large meals
Waiting 3 hours after a meal to lie down
Refraining from ingesting food (except liquids) within 3 hours of bedtime
Elevating the head of the bed 8 inches
Avoiding bending or stooping positions
Rest assured, 80 percent of the people stay managed with just these lifestyle management. Lets hope you are one of those 80 %.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
Regards
