Stomach and digestion: Peppermint tea may relieve an upset stomach. And in some cases, it has been seen to relieve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It does this by causing the muscles of the stomach to relax and by improving the flow of bile, helping food digest and pass through the stomach more quickly. But peppermint can also be an irritant, so it should not be used if you have
gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD.

Even a Little Alcohol Can Harm Your Health, Research Shows – The New York Times
January 24, 2023Note that the article didn’t mention the connection between alcohol, stomach acid, GERD & esophageal cancer. Isn’t this another negative of alcohol besides its relationship to DNA damage?

Does coffee increase cancer risk? | Interviews | Naked Scientists
September 16, 2022Liked the discussion of the paper by @stevesphd on Coffee Consumption
& Cancer Risk (https://clinicalnutritionjournal.com/article/S0261-5614(22)00313-2/fulltext). However, I was surprised that the elevation of stomach acid & GERD from caffeine was not mentioned as a potential reason for the association with esophageal cancer.

It’s easy to get confused about whether milk is an acid or a base, especially when you consider that some people drink milk or take calcium to treat an acidic stomach. Actually, milk has a pH of around 6.5 to 6.7, which makes it slightly acidic. Some sources cite milk as being neutral since it is so close to the neutral pH of 7.0. However, milk contains lactic acid, which is a hydrogen donor or proton donor. If you test milk with litmus paper, you’ll get a neutral to a slightly acidic response.
