Is Dove Dark Chocolate Singles Size Candy Bar 1.44-Ounce Bar 18-Count Box GERD Friendly?
Why it's not GERD friendly
- cocoa butter
- chocolate
- chocolate processed with alkali
- semisweet chocolate
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.
