Chocolate?

Chocolate?

I don't seem to get an correlation between eating chocolate and GERD sensations so could it not be cause for me? Sometimes my elimination system is congested so I feel that's a cause.

Some experts say that alcohol, caffeine, and chocolate relax the lower esophageal sphincter which keeps stomach acid off the esophagus.   Alcohol is likely more a problem than chocolate, but everyone is different in how they respond.
