Abstract

Food sensitivity Laryngopharyngeal reflux Reflux Reflux laryngitis
Reflux is an expensive, high prevalence disease that affects at least half of patients with laryngeal and voice disorders. Approaches to treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflux include medical, lifestyle, dietary, and surgical treatment options.2 We review four patients who had persistent reflux signs and symptoms on appropriate lifestyle including elevating head of bed and dietary modifications, as well as antacid, H2 receptor blockers, and proton pump inhibitor therapy, who improved substantially on specific food avoidance diets. This raises food sensitivity as a possible factor in patients with intractable LPR.
