I heard that eating potato intention in the morning on an empty stomach can help reduce Reflux if I have stomach acidity. Is it true? Also, is apple good for reflux?

Dr. Ghassan Nawfal Surgery
This is not proven scientifically. Potatoes, whether fried, mashed or in salads are foods that I tell my patients with reflux to avoid as much as possible. As for apples, they do not increase the symptoms of reflux as much as citrus fruits do, but they do not relieve them either.
