Is McCormick Imitation Vanilla Extract, Clear, 2 oz GERD Friendly?

Description
Clear imitation vanilla provides a sweet, straightforward vanilla flavor with a thin, watery texture, commonly used to flavor cookies, cakes, frostings, and beverages. Reviewers often note consistent taste and value but mention it lacks the depth and complexity of pure vanilla, while performing reliably in everyday baking and dessert recipes.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- citric acid
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.
