There are some benefits of green tea for acid reflux treatment in particular and for the digestion in general.
Organic Green tea is quite rich in antioxidant polyphenols that help stimulate the digestive process and prevent the acid or undigested food from flowing back into the esophagus.
It activates the proper contraction of the lower esophageal sphincter which restricts the backward movement of the stomach acids into the esophagus.
Green tea can also prevent heartburn due to its properties of theobromine, tannins, and theophylline.
Lastly, its anti-inflammatory property is very beneficial in relieving burning sensations caused by this condition.
