Answer

A spoonful of mustard and shots of pickle juice works wonders for me.

Answer

I kept getting heartburn in the evening like 30 minutes after eating how matter what I ate. With my first, I would really only get it with acidic food. This time it’s been anything. A light workout has worked wonders for me.

Answer

The only thing I do is eat tums 😂

Answer

I looked up what causes heartburn and found put the peppermint tea, occasional black tea, and chocolate could be the culprits since I don’t eat much fried or spicy food and don’t drink carbonated beverages or coffee. Therefore, I cut those out almost entirely (the chocolate is still occasional but in smaller amounts). The heartburn has dramatically decreased since. But I was miserable for about 5 weeks. This is not to say that cutting out things will help everyone but it’s worth a try.
