You enjoyed that spicy burrito for dinner, but then it hits you — that uncomfortable feeling in your chest that can only mean one thing: heartburn.
Heartburn can be a normal part of life for many people. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, about 60 million Americans have heartburn at least once a month, and it’s estimated that as many as 15 million have heartburn every day.
Along with working with a doctor to assess and manage your symptoms, there are also some steps you can take to stop acid reflux naturally. Here are some acid reflux remedies that may help get rid of heartburn without antacids.
Warning
If you regularly have heartburn more than two or three times per week, see a doctor, because your symptoms may be due to a more serious condition called GERD.
