Acid reflux disease can be caused by a number of different factors, so there is no guaranteed diet to prevent it from developing.

Try to avoid foods that can aggravate your stomach such as alcohol, carbonated drinks, spicy food, mint, citrus fruits, and fried food.

Causes and Cures for Acid Reflux?
When an individual experiences acid reflux (gastroesophageal reflux disease), their stomach is leaking stomach acid and/or food into the esophagus. This causes an irritation and burning sensation in the middle of the chest and sometimes throat. The stomach muscle LES (lower esophageal sphincter) is responsible for keeping food and acid in the stomach. When the LES does not close completely, the bile acid and food is released into the esophagus. Other symptoms of reflux include the sensation of food being stuck in the middle of the breastbone, difficulty swallowing, and nausea after eating. Most people with severe heartburn avoid foods that include citrus fruit, carbonated beverages, alcohol, chocolate and mint flavored foods. The majority of people with acid reflux experience a significant decrease of symptoms when they avoid these beverages and food. In addition, people with severe symptoms also can avoid smoking, lying down after eating, eating smaller portions or meals and sustain from bending over after eating. Although most mild to moderate cases of acid reflux can be reduced using these simple changes, there are over the counter drugs that can reduce or even eliminate reflux occurrences. For those experiences significant and reoccurring symptoms, acid reflux can be debilitating and major health problem. If too much acid reaches the esophagus, over a period of time the lining of the esophagus changes and becomes damaged. A change in the lining of the esophagus can increase the chance of cancer. When too much acid gets in the mouth, the acid can do considerable damage to an individual’s teeth. Also, chronic coughing and wheezing can occur if an individual has extensive acid reflux. If bleeding from the throat, choking, shortness of breath when coughing or recurrent vomiting occurs, a doctor should be contacted. While acid reflux can typically be reduced or eliminated with a change of diet or over the counter medications, many people will need to still seek professional care. To prevent further complications with the throat, mouth, and stomach, a doctor should be notified as soon as a serious symptom occurs.

What kind of juice and tea can you drink without triggering your Acid Reflex if decaf tea still triggers it?
Mint tea is considered to be helpful for some. Personally, I don't like "Peppermint" tea, but "Plantation Mint" seems to settle my stomach when MY reflux starts to flare up. There is no way to know how it will affect you so all you can do is give it a try. Good luck.AnswerThe gastro-esophageal sphincter, is the muscle that encircles the junction between the esophagus and the stomach. This muscle keeps this area closed so that stomach acid will not "reflux" into your esophagus and irritate the lining of the esopagus. Nicotine (tobacco) relaxes this muscle and allows the reflux of acid into the esophagus. Obesity also contributes to acid reflux,as does eating a large meal and then lying down. Some people who have symptoms at night will benefit from elevating the head of their bed 4-6 inches, this can be done be putting concrete blocks under the legs at the head of the bed. Caffiene and alcohol are also contributory factors and should be eliminated or reduced. Yhe citric acid in fruit juice and tomato juice can also aggrevate this condition. AnswerThe above poster gave you a good description of what causes acid reflux. There are medications for this, but by prescription only. With a good diet you can over come this (I did.) Stay away from acidic foods or juices. Orange Juice, Pineapple Juice, Apple Juice. The ones you could have are white grape juice, strawberry juice, raspberry (dilute it with a little cold water.) Stay away from fats and spicy foods and don't eat after 8 PM. It is true that by propping your head up on a pillow or two when going to bed for the night will help. Japanese green tea (only two or three cups per day) is good for the stomach and shouldn't react on you like the regular tea does. Drink lots of water!!!! If you are out at guests and there is some spicy foods and you feel you have to eat it, take a full glass of water first, then have water with your meal and then drink another full glass of water after your meal. This dilutes stomach acids.Stay away from smoking, alcohol (even wine).
