Is Sourmelon Bites Smartsweets GERD Friendly?

Description
Bright watermelon-flavored bites deliver a tangy outer sourness with a soft, chewy interior, often praised for balanced tartness and texture. Consumers commonly snack them straight, use as sweet-and-sour mix-ins for desserts, or pack for travel. Reviews note consistent flavor and occasional textural differences.
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.
