citric acid

Dietitian note

Citric 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.

Description

Crisp, mildly bitter tonic with light carbonation and a thin, effervescent mouthfeel. Often used as a mixer for gin, vodka, and cocktails or as a refreshing standalone seltzer. Reviewers note a subtler bitterness than standard tonics, convenient packaging, and adequate value, though some find the flavor less robust and accessible.
