Home Remedies to Fight Acid Reflux

There are many homemade remedies that people have used to help with acid reflux. Remember- these remedies treat the symptoms. In order to prevent acid reflux in the first place you need to make a few lifestyle changes. The most important thing you can do is to watch your diet. Avoid eating certain foods that trigger excess stomach acid (citrus foods and juices, tomatoes, fried and fatty foods, coffee, and alcohol) and eat smaller, more frequent meals. Eating before bedtime is another trigger because gravity is going against you when you're laying down. It's best to leave at least 3 hours between your last meal and bedtime to avoid heartburn and acid issues. You should also sleep with your head at least 6 to 8 inches elevated to encourage stomach acids to stay down. There are specially designed wedge pillows for acid reflux for this. Keep your weight in a health range, don't smoke, and avoid tight-fitted clothing.

Ok so now that I've gotten that part out of the way, here are some homemade remedies to help with your acid reflux.
