Dietitian note

Carbonated water may exacerbate symptoms for individuals with GERD. The carbonation can increase pressure within the stomach, potentially pushing stomach acid back up into the esophagus. This can irritate the already inflamed lining of the esophagus, worsening heartburn and other GERD symptoms. Please note that while plain carbonated water lacks the acidity of sodas, it may still trigger discomfort for some individuals with GERD.
