I Hate Heartburn

I think soda is doing it. No more soda for me. How do you deal with heartburn?

Many people experience heartburn after consuming too much of anything sugary This is because the stomach is required to produce more acids to break it down. This acid production is felt as heartburn.

Excellent bit of knowledge that I did not know, thank you for sharing it. @Anonymartyr
@GlitterBug Thanks. I have to make some use of a childhood where I was only allowed to read non-fiction and do nothing else.

I take omeprazole (20mg) every morning.
Best thing is to see your doctor, because it doesn’t go away on its own.
Some foods make it worse, anything spicy especially. Also things like cucumber skins. Google it, and you’ll get a list of food to avoid.
Good luck.
when taking proton inhibitors you need to know you're changing stomach conditions &
osteoporosis and proton inhibitors are/may be connected

See this is when being lactose intolerant really doesn't work in my favor. @Reaper8541

Gaviscon is what my doctor gave me, I'd been having earaches because my acid was that bad but I also now have a bed wedge

Acid reducer, over the counter

Yeah that’s a quick fix, but it’s not very long lasting - for me anyway...@HannahSky

@Oneofthestormboys depends on if it's a one time thing for her or not

Try and eat a more alkaline diet, drink more water etc.

@GlitterBug yeah.

Taking medicine just makes me feel worse because my body will start depending on it
I take Nexium every morning.
