Why it's not GERD friendly
- beef gelatine
beef gelatine
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.

Reviews
Purchase error
I picked these up at a service station without looking at the ingredients or spoonful app thinking “surely they’ll be ok.” But no. First ingredient is wheat glucose syrup. It’s almost as if these manufacturers are running out of things to put wheat in. Shame on you Waitrose.
