Do You Know this About Milk?
Posted , 3 users are following.
I always thought that it was only cream and full fat milk you had to avoid on a GERD diet. I've been using Trim milk which is about 0.2% fat. However, my esophageal ulcer has been playing up and causing me pain even so. Yesterday I did some research and found an article about a study that was done in the seventies. The upshot of it was that ALL kinds of milk, even non-fat milk cause a stimulation of stomach acid secretion. Looks like milk is off the menu as well now.

Keeping a limited amount of food/liquid in the stomach helps..thus a Gastritis type diet with easy digestive foods via small meals is helpful. PPI's help some..hurt others for routine acid reduction...great for HP irradication.
I'm not confident but lean towards the post surgery protocol of L Glutamine to boost recovery...Know what it can do for both Gastritis and IBS but not the esophagus...do some homework on this..see if it might be worth adding it to your program...your positioning can help or hurt as well...Claudio

She is Japanese and did take some Japaese herbals...she has been ulcer free now for 2 years...watches carefully her food and has adapted to smaller meals as a routine....she has never been overweight..and does very light exercise. she seems healthy as a race horse now at 75.
The problem with the PPI..it only blocks the production of HCL...and a very very small amount of Pepsin..thus you get concentrated bile and Pepsin as a result...both do far more damage outside the stomach than HCL...

am a tad confused....you have reflux only via positiioning?. you say even the slightest stomach contraction leads to reflux.
I'd think long and hard about Lynx or Nissen...I'm not an advocate whatsoever but I'd do conserable debate with myself and others.
I'd also switch from manuka to bismuth tablets...if they are tollerable..not the liquid...tabs are 265mg...so can take 600mg a tad more if if...these will help with the acid and maybe the ulcer...while I haven't any study other than gastric and peptic ulcers...they might help moreso than Widderspoon or other types of Manuka...
