I used to have gastric reflux. Since I eliminated Carrageenan from my diet, I no longer suffer from GERD. Carrageenan is used as a thickener in foods, so you need to check everything you buy. It's used in nondairy creamers, chocolate milk, cheap ice cream, cocoa mixes, and even some cereals. Here are links for further info:
