Is DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CAKE GERD Friendly?
Why it's not GERD friendly
- cocoa butter
- semisweet chocolate
- chocolate liquor
- cocoa alkali processed
cocoa butter
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.
