Is Carman's Protein Bars Double Dark Choc with Belgian Chocolate 10 pack GERD Friendly?

Description
Dense rich dark chocolate bar delivers an intense cocoa flavor with discrete chocolate pieces; texture is chewy with occasional firm chocolate bits. Reviewers commonly cite satisfying richness, convenient portability, and use as a snack or on-the-go pick-me-up, though some also note stickiness and variable bar density between batches in stores.
Why it's not GERD friendly

- milk powder
- belgian milk chocolate 2
- milk protein
cocoa powder
Dietitian noteCocoa contains compounds that can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, making it easier for stomach acid to reflux. It also stimulates the production of stomach acid, further contributing to heartburn and GERD symptoms. Additionally, cocoa's caffeine and theobromine content can exacerbate reflux by increasing stomach acidity and relaxing the LES.
