6 Secret Natural Acid Reflux Remedies

By: Lauren Hobbes Home |


Are you looking for a natural acid reflux remedy? Some people suffer from acid reflux and heartburn for years, trying medication after medication, and never really finding complete relief. Others simply prefer avoiding medications and prefer a natural treatment. But with all the medications on the market, is there really an effective home remedy for acid reflux? Actually, there are several.

One of the most popular home remedies for heartburn is apple cider vinegar mixed with water. Or, try apple cider vinegar with a little baking soda mixed with water. It sounds gross, but many people swear by this as a great natural acid reflux cure.

Another popular natural remedy is pickle juice. Yes, pickle juice! If you can muster enough courage to drink some down, swigging on pickle juice can stop a bout of acid reflux in its tracks. Some people drink pickle juice on a daily basis now, just because they have found it really stops their heartburn quickly.

Apples and other alkalizing foods are also said to calm down heartburn and cure acid reflux for some. Also, taking probiotics on a regular basis, such as acidophilus, can help.

Aloe vera juice is another remedy that works for some people. You may have to try one of these natural acid reflux remedies for a couple of days to see which one works best for you.

Of course, changing to a more pH balanced acid reflux diet is probably one of the best cures, as it will prevent it from happening in the first place, but many of us struggle with changing lifelong dietary habits and it can take quite a bit of discipline. Still, once you get used to what types of foods you can eat, it becomes a lot easier over time, plus you will feel better.

Your bodies' pH balance in general could be acidic. If this is the case, all sorts of ailments can crop up. The body should not have an overly acidic pH. Most of the natural remedies actually have an alkalizing effect. Purchase some pH test strips, and you can also get a variety of water additives as well as alkalizing supplements to help balance out the overall pH of your body.

Let's review our list of the top 6 home remedies for heartburn:
1) Apple Cider Vinegar
2) Baking Soda
3) Pickle Juice
4) Aloe Vera Juice
5) Probiotics
6) Apples and Other Alkaline Foods (pH balanced, non-acidic diet)

Who knows, you might get rid of acid reflux while curing fatigue and other symptoms at the same time, without ever having to resort to over the counter heartburn medications or prescription drugs for acid reflux. Hopefully one of these natural remedies will bring you relief.
