Did you know that there are certain foods that you need if you have Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)? Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) happens when stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus). When you swallow, the lower esophageal sphincter, a circular band of muscle around the bottom of your esophagus, relaxes, allowing food and drink to pass into your stomach. Then the sphincter closes again. If the sphincter relaxes abnormally or weakens, stomach acid can flow back up into your esophagus.
