Gastro-oesophageal reflux

Gastro-oesophageal reflux

Here are the main indications to counteract this disorder

Recent studies show that gastroesophageal reflux in Italy affects about 20-25% of the population. The main causes of the onset of reflux are precisely poor eating habits and incorrect lifestyles and being overweight. Gastroesophageal reflux occurs when gastric contents back up into the esophageal lumen. Symptoms vary, but the most common is burning.

The main directions for addressing this issue are:
1. Reduce the quantity of meals by increasing their frequency (eat little but often).
2. Follow a low-fat diet, also paying attention to the consumption of sweets and sugary drinks.
3. Be careful not to take food that is too hot or too cold.
4. Beware of consuming foods that can increase stomach acidity such as: coffee, tea, milk, citrus fruits, tomato and chocolate.
5. Take time to eat, eating slowly helps reduce symptoms. The meal should be consumed in no less than 25 minutes.
6. If you are overweight or obese, it is recommended that you try to gradually lose weight through an individualized nutritional plan based on each person’s work and family preferences and nutritional needs, while practicing physical activity.
7. Encourage good hydration by taking in at least 1.5 liters of water daily, including in the form of soups, herbal teas, and prefer the consumption of foods such as fruits and vegetables in addition to whole foods.

Finally, it is good to avoid lying down immediately after eating, but waiting 1-2 hours. If you smoke, it is good, of course, to try to quit.
