In fact, some people complain of increased heartburn on a high-protein diet, says Dr. Abdul Jabbar, a gastroenterologist and assistant professor at the University of Louisville in Kentucky. It may be the increased levels of fat, not protein, in these diets that cause heartburn symptoms. Fatty foods can trigger heartburn, possibly because fat slows down the digestive process, allowing food to remain in the stomach longer.
