Anonymous Coward User ID: 77351381 Canada 12/04/2022 07:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have bad acid reflux and heartburn. Quoting: CigarTigher I tried milk , it works, but makes me throw up afterwards:(. I can't take certain medications because I am pregnant. I've tried baking soda and water but I don't think I got the ratio right. It didn't work. Any tips? Simple, baking soda, not baking powder but baking soda 1 yeaspoon in glass of water sip slowly let it coat the esophagus |

Baby is squeezing your stomach, no diet changes will stop it. Not sure if you have an issue with antacids, but I ate them like nobody's business when I was in a family way. Results were always instantaneous and they were very effective. If you can't take tums for whatever reason, I'm sorry. They really help! |

Quoting: BFD That's what works for me. Apple cider vinegar contains 5-6% acetic acid. Can you explain how the chemistry work for acid reducing acid reflux?

Make sure that you use a quality baking soda. Do not use Arm and Hammer since it is found to have aluminum in it. The brand I use that is pure bicarbonate of soda is Red Hill. You can buy it online. It tastes great and is less filling. Just joking its not Miller Lite. Also swishing and spitting it out three time a day can help improve gum health as well as help heal infected teeth. It works for me. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73089366 United States 12/04/2022 08:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You need to quit eating after 6 pm, you need to raise the head of your bed 4 inches (get blocks for that at Walmart/Home Depot). Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78151287 This is what really helped me. I sleep in a recliner now. I had to quit talking meds because of my kidneys. I still get heartburn occasionally. I drink skim or 1% milk. High fat content can make it worse. Quit drinking caffeine and drink decaf. Stop sugary drinks and reduce your sugary treats which includes high carb breads. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81216147 After you witness the effects, eat wheat in moderation until a symptom flares up. Quit wheat for a few days, repeat. I suspect this is genetic, so it won't work for everyone. Couple of days w/o wheat should be enough to notice a decrease in heartburn... The rest is icing. |

User ID: 84848921 Thailand 12/04/2022 09:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have one friend that took 3 antibiotics one after the other recommended by his doctor, it worked. I had heart burn and acid reflux really bad. I took MMS for another ailment and much to my surprise it got rid of my heart burn. MMS kills all viruses and bacteria. MMS is sodium chlorite mixed with an acid at the time of use. I highly recommend it. should only take about 4 or 5 days. My heart burn has been gone for over 10years. MMS is cheap and good for almost everything. hope this helps mondali2 |

Culturally outdated by choice User ID: 82763567 United States 12/04/2022 09:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Baking soda and water is all I've used for over 30 years ... topped off tea spoon to 8 oz water Quoting: TheParadigmMan Another vote for this - seems to work best if the water isn't cold. Sometimes I make it a little stronger, teaspoon in 1/2 to 2/3 cup water. Raise the head of your bed 30 degrees, whether with pillows, bricks under the bed legs, or an adjustable bed frame. I believe Paranoiaaaa suggested sleeping in a recliner. That works, too. I know Bragg's vinegar works for many, but not for me. Eating smaller meals more often might help, too. Baby's moving your anatomy around and you don't have as much room in your stomach. Hope you find the answer. Heartburn is miserable! More deplorable all the time. |

Todays candies don't have the oil but you can buy gelcaps of peppermint oil. Does it happen after eating wheat gluten? Mine mysteriously went away when I took a long gluten break. |

Just stop eating mostly or drop it in half. Figure out what You really need. A half can of progresso vegetable soup Maybe? with a piece of bread and butter? A small salad. Thats whats killing You, too much food. Guardian |
