Gastro oesophageal reflux disease GORD and BSD

I just been been diagnosed with GORD and and been given 4 weeks of omaprazole and I’ve to go back in 4 weeks and see how it’s going. The advice I got from the hospital is to eat little and often and avoid spicy and acidic foods. Oh, and to try to lose weight - which I definitely need to do!!

I want to try to manage this as far as possible by diet although I’ll take the medication for the four week period and see how I'm doing then. I’ve been looking at diets and eating plans til they’re coming out my ears! I think I prefer a Mediterranean/ low carb/anti inflammatory type approach which seems to fit with the low carb Mediterranean - the M plan on the BSD website. I won't be able to do any fasting as told not to have long gaps between meals.

Has anyone got any experience doing the BSD with GORD and can give me some advise

sorry I don't have this condition but it might be worth asking on the main 5:2 thread as I know fasting can cause heartburn (I have had it a couple of times- so weird to eat less and get indigestion)
