Let's put together a Barrett's esophagus friendly diet we could download or print off this site. It sure would be nice! Thanks

It never got written down but a lot of things to eat were posted. It’s basically a bland no acid diet. Lots of baked chicken, green vegetables . No citrus, bananas and watermelon are ok. No vinegar products or tomatoe. Cut all spices out. No Soda or booze. No weed or tobacco. Breakfast is oatmeal or shredded wheat and bran or Cheerios with unsweetened almond milk. Low acid coffee for me with almond milk as a creamer. Lunch is Greek yogurt, banana and a turkey sandwich. Supper would be chicken, brown rice and a green vegetable. For desert I’d have a slice of pumpkin bread. My last 2 scopes were Barrett’s free. I stop eating 4 hours before bedtime and that was my problem before. I’ve had no more reflux and my doctor said come back in 5 years. I still take omperazole. Good luck with your new diet.

That would be wonderful. I do not have dysplasia. Can you recommend any good recipe books. There are so many.
Thank you for your help.

A book "The Acid Watcher Diet" by Dr Aviv has been helpful for me.
I don't follow exactly but has been helpful. It gives exact diet and shopping lists.

Does anyone have night sweats associated with acid reflux?

@lazylegs - hi, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I'd be interested to hear more about your night sweats - how long you've had them, what they are like, how you've come to associate them with acid reflux.

I'm guessing from your question that you have an acid reflux diagnosis? When were you diagnosed?

I was diagnosed when ihad a gastroscopy about 6 years ago. I was surprised as I had no symptoms or heartburn
About 8 months ago I started to have night sweats about 4 hours after I went to bed. The excessive sweating was mainly on my chest. I could alleviate that by sitting up and taking an antacid pill. Im also taking ezomaprazole I’m now on a strict diet for reflux sufferers and having no sweating
