Is Ensure Original Chocolate Nutrition Powder GERD Friendly?
Why it's not GERD friendly
- cocoa powder
- milk protein concentrate
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.
