Is it okay to drink coffee first thing in the morning if I have reflux?
27 يناير 2014

د. Judy Matta طب الأطفال
If you already have reflux, drinking coffee in the morning on an can aggravate your condition. The caffeine in the coffee relaxes the ring-like muscle, called the lower esophageal sphincter that exists between the lower part of the esophagus and the stomach ( this sphicter helps to keep food and liquids in the stomach), thus when the sphincter is relaxed by the caffeine in coffee, it is easier for food to travel back into the esophagus along with acid from the stomach, which can cause further irritation.
