citric acid
Dietitian noteCitric acid, a common food additive, is a known GERD trigger due to its high acidity, which can directly irritate the esophagus. It can also weaken the lower esophageal sphincter, allowing stomach acid to flow back up and cause heartburn. Furthermore, even small amounts of citric acid can significantly increase stomach acid production, worsening reflux symptoms.

Reviews
May contain gluten
I am a celiac, and I have been using this Vital Proteins brand supplement uneventfully for quite some time until I decided to give this limited edition Ice Pop a shot. Although it says made without gluten, my reaction says otherwise. I also subscribe to an APP that identifies products with gluten, and a warning sign popped up when I decided to challenge Vital Proteins’ claim. I will continue their original recipe, because it is a good collagen product.
