chilli powder

Dietitian note

Chili powder and chili oil often contains capsaicin, a compound that can irritate the lining of the esophagus and stimulate the production of stomach acid. This can lead to heartburn, acid reflux, and other discomfort. If you have GERD, it's best to limit or avoid spicy foods, including those with chili powder. However, individual tolerance varies. Some people with GERD can tolerate mild amounts of spice, while others may need to avoid it completely.
