Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disease that presents with a variety of symptoms including heartburn and acid regurgitation. Although dietary modification is currently regarded as first-line therapy for the disease, the role of diet in the pathogenesis and management of GERD is still poorly understood. There has been speculation for many years that certain dietary and lifestyle factors may play a role in the pathogenesis or course of GERD. A general consensus on the control of GERD through alterations in diet and lifestyle factors. The study was conducted on geriatric people aged from 50- 90 years, Hyderabad. The 100 samples were collected randomly. A structured questionnaire was developed in order to create awareness to know the knowledge on what food needs to be avoided and included. The data collected was tabulated and analysed statistically using one sample t- test and p> 0.100 and is significant at t. 100 hence, hypothesis is proved. The study concluded that patients suffering from GERD have poor knowledge on dietary pattern. The most of the population who are suffering from diabetes or hypertension or CVD, they are more prone to GERD.
