Is Trader Joe's Sliced Prosciutto GERD Friendly?

Description
Thin, delicate slices offer a silky, slightly salty, umami-forward flavor and tender, melt-in-mouth texture. Common uses include charcuterie boards, sandwiches, wrapping around melon or asparagus, and topping salads or pizzas. Reviewers commonly note consistent thinness and rich taste, while some mention variability in saltiness and slice moisture levels occasionally too.

Dietitian noteRed meat, especially fatty cuts, can slow down digestion and relax the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). This muscle normally prevents stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus. When it's relaxed, acid reflux can occur. Red meat can also increase stomach acid production, which can further irritate the already inflamed esophageal lining in people with GERD.
