This may sound crazy, and it might just be my situation, but it worked for me. I have never been actually diagnosed with acid reflux, but the symptoms fit. I was practically eating Tums all the time. I went on a low-carb diet to lose weight. As soon as I cut back on carbs, the reflux was gone. I don’t follow the low-carb diet much anymore, and I can always tell when I’ve had too many carbs. Like I said, it might just be me and my situation, but it’s the carbohydrates that cause my problems.

i actually take the little purple pill but my mother is always researching things and says that baking soda water will help. Also I have read that 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar a day will also help. Milk only masks it. I have an irratable esophogus and i can’t eat or drink anything daily without my pills, so good luck to you.
