Core Tip Globally, the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and GERD symptoms vary depending from country to country and region to region. Defining GERD and pinpointing its prevalence is problematic due to its diagnostic issues. However, understanding the differences in prevalence will help us identify the differences in associated and risk factors, such as genetics and diet, that lead to an individual’s susceptibility to suffering from GERD and its symptoms.
