You may have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) if you have acid reflux a few times per week or more or if the reflux has damaged your esophagus. Certain foods can trigger acid reflux. Doctors generally recommend avoiding foods high in acidity, such as pineapple.
Stress may not actually increase the production of stomach acid, a common cause of acid reflux, but it does make you more sensitive to smaller amounts of acid in the esophagus. This means that your reflux may not actually be getting worse, but it will feel like it is.
