Dietitian noteRed meat, especially fatty cuts, can slow down digestion and relax the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). This muscle normally prevents stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus. When it's relaxed, acid reflux can occur. Red meat can also increase stomach acid production, which can further irritate the already inflamed esophageal lining in people with GERD.
