                                According to a study published in the journal *Nutrients*, rice was associated with fewer postprandial gastroesophageal reflux symptoms compared to wheat in patients with overlapping GERD and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. This suggests that plain, low-fat rice can be a beneficial part of a GERD-friendly diet, making it a valuable staple for many managing acid reflux.
