The respect of diet and lifestyle modifications could be associated with better improvement of laryngopharyngeal symptoms, perceptual dysphonia, and acoustic measurements. The potential positive impact of alkaline, protein, low-fat, low-acid diet could be explained by many physiological effects on esophageal sphincter tonicity, acid and pepsin productions, and gastric emptying time. Future controlled prospective studies are needed to confirm the potential key role of alkaline, protein, low-fat, low-acid diet and lifestyle modifications in the clinical improvement of patients with suspected LPR disease.
