What foods are acidic how do i know what to stay away from?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Acidic foods: All citrus fruit, lemons, limes, oranges, grapefruit are acidic. Tomatoes or tomato sauces , coffee and vinegar are also acidic. Having an upper endoscopy will show if any damage has been done to your stomach lining , or if reflux is the problem instead of increased acid intake, or a combination of the two.
