Get a treat for GERD

The delightfully dressed green salad often forms a part of the menu. But here comes the crucial point of distinction - should the salad dressing be more appealing to the eye or can it also serve a more important purpose, particularly when it comes to GERD. And the good news is, it seems that the salad dressing may be extremely helpful.

How to set up the salad dressing?

To start with, the dressings should not be too oily or acidic nor very creamy in nature. The use of apple cider vinegar as part of the dressing appears to be quite satisfactory since it includes several essential enzymes, minerals, fibers in the form of potash and pectin and more than twenty trace elements. Besides, such dressings also have anti spasmodic properties that are supportive to esophageal irritations or spasms. GERD salad dressings consisting of apple cider vinegar and mixed with crushed cloves of garlic and refrigerated for a couple of hours may help those affected by GERD.

Investigations have also revealed that only sugar free probiotic unheated yogurt-based dressings can prevent GERD if taken regularly. It is comparatively a simple method in which one has to choose the flavor of the yogurt and then get it blended till all the lumps are gone. Such salad dressings can indeed be effective. There are no side effects, and they are soothing to the stomach wall and are bacteria-friendly to the various stomach bacilli too.

Alternatively, Parmigiano-Reggiano based dressings may also prove effective in controlling GERD. However, the recipe is rather complex and therefore, needs care and attention as to the proportions of its various ingredients. Salad dressings for 4 servings need to consist of ½ ounce of Parmigiano-Reggiano, 2 Tbsp of reduced-fat mayonnaise, 2 Tbsp of non-fat buttermilk, ¼ cup of 2% milk, ½ tsp of balsamic vinegar (but since the triggers of GERD seem to be different from one person to another, in some at least, vinegar may cause acid), 2 Tbsp of yellow bell pepper, 1 Tbsp of red bell pepper and 1 ounce of reduced-fat Swiss cheese.

An apple cider vinegar diet also works great for all those who are suffering from GERD.

Yes, the dressings should be good to eat. But more importantly perhaps, such GERD salad dressings can help all those who are suffering from GERD.

The dressings are effective, yes. There are also quite a few conventional medicines that treat the condition. However the fact is that, such medicines often treat just the symptoms whereas the real factors remain unattended. Holistic or natural remedies are often better.
