Re: AR/GERD, have you tried "intermittent fasting" of the 16:8 variety (that is: no fasting days; just, limiting food to a small e.g. 8 hour window)? My parent

My parents developed later-life GERD and I believe I was starting to. Started IF for other reasons and the GERD-like symptoms more or less vanished for me. I think part of that is the necessary gap between last-food-intake and becoming horizontal for sleep... which is now a few hours minimum...
- vonseel 7y agoMy symptoms started at 19 (30 now) and I have not been off PPIs since then. IF and raised bed helps. Some weeks the symptoms are under control, some weeks they get worse.
