I had GERD and lost 10–12 kg because of it. Now my weight is not increasing. How can I gain weight again?
I understand, losing that much weight due to GERD can be very stressful, especially when weight doesn’t come back.
After GERD, weight usually doesn’t increase because digestion and appetite remain weak, and people keep eating less out of fear of symptoms. Until digestion settles and absorption improves, weight gain is difficult.
It is important to first stabilise reflux, strengthen digestion, and slowly add calorie-dense but easy to digest foods, rather than forcing heavy meals and risk triggering the gut again.
A consultation can help assess what’s still blocking recovery in your case and guide you safely toward healthy weight gain.
The gut needs a gradual rebuilding of digestive strength before it can handle calorie-dense foods without reacting. Introducing the right sequence of support — enzymes, lining repair, bacterial balance — is what makes weight recovery sustainable.
If you've tried antacids, triple therapy, probiotics, Ayurvedic churans, and strict diets — and still ended up back at square one — this is worth understanding. The problem was never that those treatments don't work. The problem is that no single treatment works alone. Permanent gut healing requires multiple modalities working in the right sequence.
