I have acid reflux, plus hernia and gerd I take one tablespoon of apple cider vinager 3 times a day.... gone!\nYou can use regular also. If you have fried foods that use catsup use vinager instead. Don't eat after 6pm. Sleep upright inclined if you have to. Use products like Zantac found at your drug stoes. Go see a doctor!\nYou will have to be careful what you eat,stay away from caffeine altogether.

don't drink milk, it feels better in your throat, but is actually acidic, i've heard.  \n\nfirst, try to prevent it.  cut back on caffeine, alcohol, and tomatoes.  eat plenty of whole wheat bread and healthy stuff.  tip the head of your bed up with a block under the legs at the head of your bed about 4 inches tall.  this keeps the acid from running up your throat at night.  \n\ntums and maalox work well for me, and there are also meds like zantac (ranitidine) and pepcid.  if you need serious help your doc can prescribe even stronger stuff.

Usally high acid.  Try liquid gaviscon immediately, and if this alleviates it, you probably need a proton pump inhibitor such as nexium, prilosec otc,etc..

Definitely ginger tea and saltines.  Drinking a cup of chicken boullion tends to help me with an upset stomach.

Broccoli and other leafy green veggies (spinish, kale, brussells sprouts), soy products like soy milk (tasty!) and tofu, almounds, and fortified foods like orange juice and cereals. Also antacids like Tums and supplements.\n\nDon't go for milk products. The animal protein makes you blood more acidic and more calcium is used up as a result. Backwards, huh?

When do you see it act up the most? After eating spicy or fatty foods especially? My husband suffers from acid reflux and his gets worse after he eats aspecially after he lies down. There is also a burning sesation that goes along with it and also like you can't hold most of your liquids or food down it will go back up your esophagus. Also you will have bad breath even if you constanly brush your teeth due to the acid reflux. and defenitely pressure feeling from almost where your heart it to the top of your stomach. Happens daily and sometimes constantly. I would call your doctor and make and appointment to get it checked out. We disregarded it to heartburn and by the time his Acid Reflux also know as GERD was diagnosed my husband has 3rd degree burns in his esaphaughs and ulders due to the acid coming back up.

If you can right after you eat  try walking around for an hour or so non-stop, get to a park if you can, try it for 3 days straight.  If it helps, tell your doctor it may be a form of acid reflux.

Make sure to always eat breakfast.  I think instant oatmeal or yogurt is best.  Take a Ginseng and Fish Oil Supplement.  Do some breathing exercises before lunch.  Breathe in through you nose and out through your mouth, but very deep.  You should feel it all the way in your stomach.

...Check with the doc to see if you have acid reflux....you can go the natural healing route, which would be to alter your lifestyle and some of your food choices. Cut back on caffeine, acidic foods, wine/alcohol, hot spicy--and eat more alkaline foods, no smoking. There is a natural seaweed called Bladder Wrack that will cauterize stomach ulcers if you have any...better and longer lasting than tagamet...

The main cause of heartburn is not always something you ate.\nIt can be the result of what is commonly known as GERD which stands for gastroesophageal reflux disease.  This is a condition whereby acids in the stomach cause food you have eaten to partially back up into your esophagus (throat).  When this happens, heartburn is most often the result.\n\nYou may not necessarily have this problem since you say you've only had heartburn once and recently.  It is possible you ate something you've never eaten before and often times, it can be the result of of emotional distress as well, or at least, if we are feeling upset for some reason, this will not help.  Some people, when upset, may either eat more or less.  Neither is good and therefore both can cause the reflux of acids.\n\nI've been dealing with this problem for quite a while.  Sometimes I will have heartburn as it is most commonly called - even though it has nothing to do with the human heart itself.  I can go for days having heartburn and then it just disappears for several more days.\n\nAt first, I just took an antacid tablet - I prefer Rolaids Tropical Fruit (pink in colour) because I just don't like peppermint or spearmint which are common flavours of antacid tablets.\n\nSeveral months ago, I finally had to take a prescription medication called Pantaloc.  There are several medications that can be prescribed but unless your problem becomes frequent or worse than the episode you already had, I advise just trying an over-the-counter remedy.  You can also take an antacid in liquid form.  Just check with a pharmacist and ask what he/she thinks is best for you.\n\nYou say you haven't eaten well lately and this may be the only reason why you had one episode.  I advise that you try to regulate your diet and stay away from spicy foods and dairy products for a little while to see if this improves your situation.  Believe it or not, drinking milk does not solve the problem even though it was believed for many years, this was the answer to heartburn.\n\nI hope you will try a few different things on the basis of over-the-counter remedies first and see what happens.  If you improve your diet and take an antacid when necessary but the problem occurs more often or episodes of heartburn seem to worsen, then see a doctor.  You should rule out having a gastric ulcer for which you may require prescription medication.

This will also help control stomach acid production.

I had an ulcer for years and so did my brother.  WHat you can eat varies from person to person, but eating greasy foods is the #1 no-no.  Spicy foods bother most people (but not me), as does caffiene, and many people must cut out milk products because they raise the acidity level in the stomach about 30 minutes after consumed.  Cut out acidic fruits such as citrus, but most other fruits are okay.  Tomato products are also acidic.\n\nHe can eat vegetables (not fried), lean meats, chicken, fish, etc.  Scrambled eggs were comforting for me.  SO were bananas.  Breads, crackers, etc., are fine.  Peanut buter and jelly sandwiches or lean meat sandwiches are good, too.  Just try to focus on what he CAN eat instead of what he can't.\n\nHe may have to experiment a little with what helps/hurts him specifically.\n\nDoctors now say that ulcers are the result of a bacteria, H. Pylori.  Most people don't know they have the bacteria until it has eaten an ulcer in their stomach lining.  He will need to get antibiotics from his doctor.\n\nHope this helps.
