Stop Acid Reflux Instantly
Acid reflux, also known as heartburn, can be painful and disruptive. It happens when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing a burning sensation in the chest. The good news? You can take simple steps to stop it almost instantly.
First, sit upright or stand. Gravity helps keep acid in the stomach where it belongs. Avoid lying down after eating.
Next, try a glass of warm water with a teaspoon of baking soda. It can neutralize stomach acid quickly. (Note: Only use this occasionally.)
Chewing sugar-free gum for 30 minutes after meals boosts saliva production, which helps wash acid back down.
You can also try a spoonful of aloe vera juice, which soothes the esophagus lining and reduces inflammation.
Avoid trigger foods like spicy dishes, citrus, chocolate, caffeine, and fatty foods — these relax the valve between your stomach and esophagus.
For long-term relief, eat smaller meals, maintain a healthy weight, and avoid eating 2–3 hours before bed.
If symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional — chronic acid reflux could be a sign of GERD.
Take control of your health, and don’t let heartburn control your day!
