At the bottom of your esophagus there is a circular band of muscles, known as the lower esophageal sphincter, which acts as a valve to the stomach. The lower esophageal sphincter muscle (LES) allows food to enter the stomach and prevents stomach acids from coming back up into the esophagus. In some people the LES muscle doesn’t open and close properly. When stomach acid refluxes back into the esophagus it can cause a burning sensation in the chest. Since the the esophagus doesn’t have the same protective lining as the stomach, the acid can irritate sensitive tissues, which causes the pain known as heartburn. What foods can cause heartburn? Although the actual cause of heartburn is physical, certain types of food tend to trigger heartburn. For example, chocolate contains compounds that could relax the LES muscle and allow the acid to enter the esophagus. Other foods, like spicy food and tomato-based foods, directly irritate the esophagus. Some of the foods that can trigger heartburn are shown to the left.
