Is Tuscan Garden Thousand Island Dressing GERD Friendly?

Description
The dressing offers a creamy, slightly tangy-sweet flavor with a smooth, thick texture that coats greens and sandwiches evenly. Commonly used on salads, as a sandwich spread, or for dipping vegetables and fries. Customer reviews often note consistent texture, approachable taste, and good value, though occasionally some find it mild.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- citric acid
- tomato paste
- distilled vinegar
- tomato puree
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.
