- wincy 6y agoI don't get why high fat foods are lumped in here. I've started avoiding all the others you mentioned, and my reflux has stopped, but I'm on a ketogenic diet that's very high in fat.
- pkaye 6y agoSome foods loosen the sphincter making it easier to get reflux. Like eating a slice of pepperoni pizza. My dietitian said each individual is different so you need to determine what works or doesn't works for you.
