I started having my meals reversed a couple of weeks ago, (high protein breakfast - high carb dinner) and have seen some pretty good results. Having a bowl of oatmeal for dinner really helps. In the recipe for bread pudding you mention Rice Bread which would be good for my great grand daughter as she is allergic to wheat. Do you have a recipe for Rice Bread?
Hi,
I think oatmeal for dinner sounds like a great idea.
I do not make my own rice bread (I think working with rice flour can be somewhat challenging), but instead buy "Food for Life" brand rice bread for my bread recipes. It seems to be available in most health food stores.
Thanks for reading the Post!

This meal-swapping is a great idea! We already have the recipes and menus, just switch it all around.
Reminds me a bit of when I lived in Australia, and we'd typically have a heavier "dinner" midday, and then a lighter "tea" around 6 or 7 pm. Even if we ae later, I noticed my GERD symptoms were much better tahn they were on my Amrican routine, and I suspect I wasn't reluxing at night as much.
What about using a sugar-free or reduced sugar substitute for the maple sugar? And maybe some whole grains? Otherwise, it seems to have a lot of simple carbs - the maple syrup,the bread, etc. I simply wouldn't be able to tolerate this item as a diabetic (sounds good though . .. sigh!), but I also wouldn't want it this rich in these types of carbs if I were non-diabetic.

Thanks Brian for your ideas. It certainly sounds like the meal schedule in Australia would be better for those with GERD!
You are right about the simple carbs, especially if you are a diabetic. For our situation, simple is better, since it is more easily digestable. That seems to be the thing with sensitive stomachs... it is all such an individual puzzle to try to solve.
Thanks again for reading the Post and for giving others some food for thought.

Thaks for your reply - it's a conundrum when a person has multiple problesm - and of course you'e right, easy digestion does help GERD, especially if you have eat dinner a little late as is the cae wiht maany Americans. I'll defiitely give the breakfast food idea a try for supper, along with simple and healthy homemade soups (which do digest well and move into the small intestine fairly qickly if prepared properly).
Beat wishes,
Brian

We do breakfast for dinner on a regular basis and as an homage to the sitcom "[Scrubs]", we call it "brinner".
Fantastic. Thank you for reading the post!
