Thanks for your excellent summary, Dr. John! I have
learned so much from you and the other doctors on this
list. I just have one comment:

While the above may not cause reflux, if your
esophagus is already sore from reflux, pouring acid on
the wound, so to speak, can be exceedingly painful!
For those of you who don't have reflux, imagine having
a cut on your finger and then peeling an orange or a
lemon and getting some of the juice in the cut.
