Worst Foods for Acid Reflux | Vanguard Gastroenterology NYC

To manage acid reflux effectively, avoid common triggers like spicy foods, citrus fruits, tomato-based sauces, fried/greasy dishes, and caffeine (including chocolate and coffee). These foods can relax the esophageal sphincter or boost stomach acid, worsening heartburn. Incorporating reflux‑friendly options alongside lifestyle changes can help ease symptoms and improve digestion. Learn more from the specialists at Vanguard Gastroenterology.
