Can you drink coffee with acid Reflux ?

Acidic foods can cause this and yes coffee is acidic. Don’t eat 3 hours before bedtime. Cut out fried foods. Cut out fast foods. Drink water and unsweetened almond milk which is alkaline. No Soda or booze. No smoking. No citrus, tomato products. Take a ppi if your doctor recommends one. I had Barrett’s but it’s been gone on my last 2 scopes. Eat chicken breast, green vegetables, ripe bananas are ok too. Lose the salt and sugar. Buy the book the acid watcher diet off Amazon. I do drink low acid coffee named healthwise I get off Amazon. Good luck! Let us know if it’s Barrett’s.

I’ve been drinking a low acid coffee for over a year now and it’s helped me with my acid reflux very much. Folgers make a version that you can find at Walmart called Simply Smooth that is reasonably priced and easy to find. Otherwise, health food stores carry many different versions of low acid coffee.

I have esophageal motility and well as Mals and dysautonomia. I had an endoscopy showing grade A Gerd. I was told there are four grades. Even though mine wasn’t higher. It hurts. I have difficulty swallowing. And caffeine makes Gerd worse every time for me. As well as anything spicy , of course. Good luck. Do they have you on a special diet? Did you do a barium swallow test? Any other go testing?

I have Barrettes and drink my coffee in the morning, none after noon. I also take 40mg of Omeprazole every morning. Don’t go to bed on a full stomach or after you eat. Wait a couple of hours if you can it helps prevent gerd. If you can’t wait, sleep on your back and not your side. I’m a side sleeper and if I don’t wait and go to bed on my side it’s instant gerd ! This works for me. Good luck.

No just the scope down my throat so far. They took a biopsy so I am waiting on the result

Soda is the number 1 enemy of gerd!

Cut out all carbonated beverages.

No vinegar products or sparkling water.
