Dr. Jonathan E. Aviv is a member of the KB brigade and an innovator in the diagnosis and treatment of acid reflux disease. His book entitled “Killing Me Softly From Inside”, available on Amazon.com, makes the connection between highly processed foods and acid reflux, and it lays out a low acid, nutritionally balanced diet. So if you’re looking to reduce your reflux, check out Dr. Aviv’s book and these delicious new recipes from his blog:

You can also fight acid reflux by loading up on foods like oatmeal, bananas, skinless chicken and turkey, broccoli, green beans, and brown rice. And staying away from chocolate, fried foods, soda, alcohol and high-fat meats.
