Answered by Doctor, Doctor Ho Thu Mai - Head of Nutrition Department - Department of Examination - Vinmec Times City International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “How to gain weight for people with acid reflux? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
I need to see a gastroenterologist to treat the root cause. For people with acid reflux, it is necessary to divide meals and chew thoroughly when eating. If your child has lost weight, the doctor needs more information about his current weight, height and weight loss in the past 6 months before he can give specific advice.
In principle, you should eat soft, small, mushy, puree with a volume of about 400ml/meal, meat/fish (300g/day), vegetables/tubes (200g/day), ripe fruit (300g/day) , fat/oil (40-50g/day), plain rice (300-400g/day), filtered water 1500ml/day.
If you still have questions about gastroesophageal reflux, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. I wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
