About GERD
What is GERD?
Acid reflux disease or GERD is a chronic digestive disorder where acid from the stomach makes its way up into the esophagus.
GERD occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter–a muscle at the end of the esophagus, doesn’t open or close like it should.
Common GERD Symptoms
As a result, GERD sufferers often experience unpleasant symptoms such as heartburn and acid indigestion.
GERD Diet
Doctors often recommend a change to eating habits as a method of treatment. This is where our dietitian and nutritionist come in.
