The last week or so I've had GRD symptoms and the only thing I'm doing different is having white wine instead of red wine. Could that alone be the cause or what else could it be? I got rid of all dairy in the last few weeks as well. Please share your thoughts.

Do you mean GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease)? If so, reflux is often caused by foods and beverages including alcohol, caffeine, chocolate, onions and garlic. Those foods cause the lower esophageal valve to relax at inappropriate times (when you're not swallowing) and allow stomach acid into the esophagus. Tomatoes and citrus fruit can irritate an already inflamed esophagus. However, GERD is rarely caused by too much stomach acid. Rather too little stomach acid often causes reflux. Nevertheless, any food allergies can also cause reflux. I had persistent reflux until I was diagnosed with dairy allergy, but eating any of my allergens can cause reflux for me.

On the same subject, do you have a good resource that says garlic causes GERD? Not that I don't believe you, my husband does not and eats a ton of garlic and the dentist says he has acid teeth errosion from GERD and I think it is from the garlic. So that is why I ask? I'd love to say here is the proof.

If you read in this link, they mention garlic and onions as both being causes of GERD: Open Original Shared Link

eating anything that is rich, spicy, or greesy? My GERD loves to act up with, for example, a large steak (yes, i'm bad and i eat the small amount of fat on it.... soooo goooooooood). What about stress? Carbonated drinks?

Luckily, mine has calmed down a bit (here nearly a year later). At its high point, it had caused damage to my throat (which took about a year to heal on its own).

I always keep a stash of pepermint tums on hand just in case. Water too.

GERD can be caused by a variety of things. I have gastroparesis and that in and of itself can cause GERD. I don't usually find problems with the foods that I eat but I can not have any chocolate at all. Chocolate just kills me! My friend can not have any onions or peppers and neither can my mom. I know other people who can't have any form of tomato product. I don't know about alcohol because I don't consume it.

I've been taking D Limonene. That's supposed to help. I have rarely had any symptoms since taking it. Maybe a couple of incidents after I went to bed. I'd wake up choking on bile. Couldn't relate it to anything that I ate or drank though.

Hi

Chocolate can do it to me and in the past I've had my suspicions about grapes too.

Luckily, only get it rarely - don't want to encourage that.

I don't think peppermint is a good choice for GERD symptoms. GERD is caused by acid entering the esophagus. Peppermint relaxes the esophageal valve and makes it easier for acid to get into the esophagus. So it is the opposite effect of what is desired. Peppermint relaxes muscles, so it can also be bad for C issues.

In answer to your subject title question, read "Why Stomach Acid is Good for You" by Jonathon Wright, MD. He explains the biochemical and physical process of reflux and lists all the common causes, as well as effective treatments for heartburn and GERD.

i'm aware of what peppermint does. However, i cannot have any of the other flavors of tums.

I also have to sleep with one of those wedge pillows.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
