Eating food high in starch even “complex carbohydrates” will keep the hernia problematic. This is because starchy foods cause the blood sugar to rise fast and then plummet to under the normal healthy level. The drop of blood sugar causes the production of serotonin to go down and cause depression. The decrease of serotonin causes the production of histamine, which causes the expansion of blood vessels. Over expansion of blood vessels causes liquid in the blood vessels to leak out. When liquid leaks out into sinus area it causes nasal drip. When it drips into the bronchi, it causes asthma.
While the diet has recently gained popularity, it is not new. I wonder how many people have been ruined by the guidelines to eat as little salt as possible? I strongly feel that no grains or high sugar fruits is my answer along with keto. If you have too little stomach acid, or the acid you produce is not sufficiently acidic, food will remain in the stomach longer than it should. Please note that due to the high volume it can take us several days before we can approve and reply to your comment. Not only is your stomach supposed to be acidic, but it must be acidic. When proteins are denatured, the enzymes in your small intestine that break them down into individual amino acids or small groups of amino acids called peptides have better access to them and are able to break them down properly. Most of the diets that quickly become popular are those that promise quick weight loss in exchange for dietary changes or restrictions. Sounds great, Marcella! It’s a logarithmic scale, so a pH of 6 is ten times more acidic than a pH of 7, and a pH of 5 is a hundred times more acidic than a pH of 7, so you can see that even when the pH of your stomach rises in the presence of food, it’s still highly acidic!

Along those lines, a very low carbohydrate and high fat diet, like ketogenic diet, may be of great benefit to obese GERD patients. A quick-fix diet will rarely lead to lasting weight loss changes, and, like in the case of the keto diet, it may even make your reflux symptoms worse. Reflux had subsided. Reply to comment by Diana. A low-fat diet high in carbs is what makes these poor patients take PPIs for life. Obesity plays a key role in increased acid reflux symptoms.
