Gerd (acid reflux)- during fasting. How to prevent it?
Description
Hi Pharmativers! Welcome to Pharmative Talk!✨
Fasting without GERD struggles? Yes, please! If you often deal with acid reflux during Ramadan, here are some must-know tips to keep your tummy happy:
💊 Take your meds at the right time
Best taken 30-60 minutes before suhoor or iftar, or 1-2 hours after eating.
🥦 Eat GERD-friendly foods
Go for fruits, veggies, and protein at suhoor to keep you full longer without triggering acid reflux.
🌙 Break your fast slowly
Start with something light, like dates and mineral water, to avoid shocking your stomach.
🚫 No lying down right after eating!
Give your body time to digest properly and prevent acid from creeping up.
😴 Fix your sleep schedule
Lack of sleep can make GERD worse, so avoid staying up too late.
🧘♂️ Keep it chill
Stress and heavy activities can trigger GERD, so take it easy and pace yourself.
Take care of your body with the right nutrition, and have a smooth fasting experience! 🌙✨
