Is Nutella Chocolate Hazelnut Spread GERD Friendly?

Reviewers note consistent flavor, convenient jar size, and reliable spreadability, while some mention sweetness level and desire for larger or resealable packaging.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- fat-reduced cocoa
- skimmed milk powder
fat-reduced cocoa
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.
