Is Kellogg's Special K 100 Calorie Snacks Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pastry Crisps GERD Friendly?

Description
Sweet brown sugar and cinnamon notes characterize the pastry-like crisps, which deliver a light, flaky texture and crisp crunch.

Why it's not GERD friendly
- citric acid
- nonfat milk

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.
