Ask Dr. Gourmet

Can you exercise if you have GERD / Acid Reflux?

Dr. Gourmet Says...

For some folks exercising can be a trigger for GERD (acid reflux). As with most triggers exercise may affect some and not others. The general recommendation is to not exercise too soon after eating. Start slow with something simple like walking and keep a diary of your symptoms.

You can find out more general information about GERD here:
