Dietitian note

Caffeine can exacerbate GERD symptoms in some individuals. It can relax the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) - this muscle acts as a barrier between the esophagus and stomach. When relaxed, it can allow stomach acid to flow back up into the esophagus, leading to heartburn Caffeine can also increase the production of stomach acid, further irritating the already inflamed esophageal lining.
