A member asked:

Does acid reflux suppress appetite?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Generally not: Usually acid reflux is relieved by putting food in the stomach (which neutralizes the acid for a short time). But acid reflux can cause nausea on occasion, and if you are nauseated then you will probably not be hungry.
