Is Smucker's Blueberry Preserves, 18 Ounces GERD Friendly?

A blueberry spread offers a bright, sweet-tart flavor with noticeable soft fruit pieces and a thick, spreadable texture; reviewers commonly note consistent fruitiness, good spreadability, and usefulness for toast, bagels, baking, yogurt, and sandwiches, while some mention varying sweetness and occasional chunkiness between jars across purchases and between different batches.
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.
