The more vegetables you eat the better imo. It is all about acidic va alkalising foods you eat. Meat is very acidic, specifically arachadonic acid. Onions for example are very alkalising and should be consumed daily.

So change the acid balance significantly and see if that helps.

Hi basten, one of my friends has GERD because the have a hiatus hernia and even though theirs is the lowest level it is very unpleasant, so I feel for you.

Here's a link about treating GERD with diet as its surprising that foods like garlic and onions exacerbate it it so here's a link about treating GERD with diet:

I hope this helps and I for one am very interested how you get on. 😊

I had this and I was vegetarian for years it got so bad and then I gave up dairy and it went almost immediately and now I don’t even have to think about it. I went from having symptoms almost every day to none in the last three years. Giving up dairy was what did it for me so might be worth a try. My father, sister and brother all have it and take tablets daily but still get it as they haven’t given up dairy. Hope this helps 🙂
