Acid reflux diet and food choice helper tool to make identification of good and bad foods for acid reflux, gerd (gastroesophageal reflux disease) and heartburn symptoms easier. If you’re struggling to control your gerd symptoms, keeping a food diary can be an effective way to identify acid reflux foods to avoid to make sure you don’t trigger your symptoms. A better food diary experience our food database is curated by trained staff to avoid the errors, missing nutrition data, and duplicates that plague other food diary services.
You can use this diary to record everything you eat and drink, and your symptoms, for one week. Essentially, eat the same thing every day, for a series of day (i.e., yogurt for breakfast, tomato soup for lunch, and chicken and potatoes for supper) to get your baseline in symptoms, and then mix it up and add one new thing and see how you react and the impact (if any on symptoms).
A trigger journal can be as simple as a notebook you carry with you, or as complex as a spreadsheet file you create on your computer.
This information will also help your doctor determine the cause of your gerd and make suggestions for your particular diet. Using this information, the application will allow you to use triggers, like your stress, diet, sleep and weather patterns, day of week, etc to predict and manage your gerd symptoms. You may choose to use a food diary to identify triggers for unwanted digestive symptoms, such as those seen in irritable bowel syndrome (ibs), or to assess whether certain foods are contributing to symptoms in other parts of the body. The gerd diary will also allow you to export your data to a spread sheet all with just a few screen taps.
