You just have to avoid certain foods, but the zantac, pepsid type drugs work great. Tums and acid neutralizers usually only work short term. If you cant get to OTC drugs. and are looking for a substitute a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of warm water works well then dont lay down.

i had to stop eating certain foods
with spices
apples
etc

zantac is what i use.

If you already know, then why are you asking? Acid reflux is not a disease, it's your body's natural reaction to an unhealthy balance of food that you put into your body. Try eating a balanced diet of healthy, all natural foods and it will probably 'cure' the problem.

there is no magic food, stop eating the stuff that causes it

I tried a lot of over the counter remedies, but nothing worked. Doctor placed me on Prevacid and the pain and discomfort are totally gone. Please don't mess around with this condition. My brother in law had 'heartburn' for years and swallowed antacids like candy (which didn't really help). He died last year of esophageal cancer at age 54. Acid reflux is nothing to mess around with on your own.

what helps me is drinking milk!!! and for some reason eating yougurt helps too!! any dairy helps alot

there is NO magic cure. Keep taking your meds or it will get worse.

Quick Action Plan for Preventing and Treating Heartburn (Acid Reflux of GERD)
.

1. Conventional physicians recommend over-the-counter antacid medications for heartburn. Although these drugs can provide temporary relief, long-term use may be harmful, as they reduce the amount of stomach acids necessary for proper digestion and assimilation of food.

2. Screen for food allergies, which contribute to poor digestion, thus leading to heartburn. Avoid the following: foods you are allergic to, eating too many different types of foods at the same meal, drinking excess fluids during the meal, wolfing down food, or eating under stress.

3. Avoid overeating, do not eat acid forming foods, commercially-processed foods, overly spicy foods, refined sugars and carbohydrates, hydrogenated fats or oils, coffee, chocolate, sodas, excess alcohol, orange and grapefruit juice, tomato products, pasteurized milk or dairy products, and foods containing peppermint and spearmint.

4. Eat an organic whole foods diet, full of organic fresh green vegetables and green vegetable juices, especially freshly-made cucumber juice, which can provide instant relief. Free-range organic meats and poultry, and wild-caught fish are recommended. Drink plenty of pure, filtered water throughout the day.
