Onion and garlic are big-time gerd triggers for me. I love Mrs. Dash
and similar no-salt spice combos, but I need one that doesn't have
onion or garlic. They all seem to have those. Are there any that don't?

Thanks.

I regret to say that I am not in Mrs. Dash country, but onions are a staple
food in most fast foods - either the real thing or in powder form.

I empathise because I have been unable to eat onions since 1993 and I know
how hard it is to avoid foods with (traces) of onions in.

I suppose you could experiment with your own personal mix of
spices. I get my spices at the local health food store as they
cost less there than the expensive Shilling brand spices available
in the grocery store.

Since I've introduced the use of the digestive supplement betaine
HCL (6 10 grain capsules with the 2 larger meals of the day)
to increase stomach acidity in combination with sleeping
on a incline, can eat most things including onion and garlic.
The only foods I need to limit are vinegar or avoid are cafffiene
bearing
foods such as coffee.

Indeed, I gotten so I can sleep on the level most nights. Likely
because I increased my dose of the digestive supplement
rather than trying to use as little as possible. Understand I
tend to be overly cautious and slow to make changes.

I've been symptom free for 4 years doing what I mention above
after years of misery from following Doctors orders and using
their meds.

Thanks. I think I might try making my own Mrs Dash sans onion and
garlic.

Congratulations on the betain working for you. Funny, I can consume
tons of vinegar, and do every meal. I don't think I have a high or low
acid problem, but rather a sensitivity to foods that relax the LES.

No Bob, that's not how it works.
You more likely have a relaxed/defective les all the time that certain foods
agitate more than others.
