Heartburn natural relief ??

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I just got a mild heartburn today. I've never got heartburn before. I have taken

zantac for temporary relief, but I was wondering if there is some natural

relief.

Of course, there has been some change in food in the past few days, but nothing

drastic. I was just wondering what could have caused it.

Is it something to be worried about ?

TIA,

Suman.

Suman, on rare occasions when I get indigestion, I drink a little plain raw

homemade kefir. It's very soothing immediately and stops the indigestion very

quickly.

I used to take ginger capsules, which usually helped, but would take about 15 or

20 minutes to be effective.

Too many sweets may be a cause of reflux for some people. Also, certain foods

may trigger it and lack of proper stomach acid is another common cause.
