Short term - You can use 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of honey in an 8 oz. glass of water. This will turn your stomach contents from acid to alkaline and will stop the acid reflux.

Long term - You need to change your diet. Diets high in fat and sugars will cause acid reflux. You need to find fats like Sesame oil and corn oil that are monosaturated and are easily digestible in the human body. Sugar tastes good, but it's not really good for you. When we talk about what we do with carbs, calories or sugar, we talk about it burning. That in itself should tell you something about the nature of refined sugars and what they do to the body. If you want something sweet, eat fruit, but eat it sparingly. In the long run, a diet change will help your body to heal itself and you won't have problems with acid reflux anymore.

By the way, you can also get a bottle of chlorophyll from your nearest health food store. It will settle your stomach and also turn your body from acid to alkaline. I use both, but apple cider vinegar is so much cheaper and it works great!

Hope this helps. Best of luck. DON'T LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO SAY "BAKING SODA". Using baking soda for heartburn is very dangerous.

Milk works good to ease the discomfort, also sipping on water helps. Also try eating ice cubes. Apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon in 8 oz of water, twice a day. I discovered this on ByeDr.com 3 months ago and it has stopped my heartburn.
