Safe

Yes. This ingredient is generally considered compatible with a Gerd diet.

Modified Cellulose Gum and the GERD Friendly Diet

Modified cellulose gum, also known as carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), is a cellulose-derived food additive commonly utilized in the food industry for its thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying properties. It is derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plant cell walls, and is modified to improve its solubility and functionality in food products. While it is generally derived from wood pulp or cotton, some variations may include corn-derived substances, making it potentially unsuitable for strict corn-free diets.
