Liverwurst with Acid Reflux

Status: Allowed with restrictions

Liverwurst is classified as conditionally suitable for Acid Reflux based on current dietary assessments. Cold cuts, cheese and spreads are often high in fat and salt while also providing protein and – in cheese – calcium. With acid reflux, the focus is on avoiding triggers that may affect the lower oesophageal sphincter or influence gastric acid production. The reasoning given is: fatty sausage delays emptying strongly. The assessment is based on conservative experience-based assessments.
