Millions of people now suffer from acid reflux or as it is often referred to, acid reflux disease, but technically this term is incorrect.

Acid reflux results when the esophagus becomes irritated with stomach acids, primarily hydrochloric acid. As we age, the stomach becomes less efficient in its ability to digest protein, which contributes to this condition.

If you have acid reflex, it is likely you turn to antacid tablets or prescription drugs, which can have side effects that rival the acid reflux condition in unpleasantness! You’ll be happy to know there are several natural, safe and effective acid reflux remedies which do not produce undesirable side effects.

Your doctor has probably recommended changes in your diet. It’s a good idea to keep a log recording what you eat along with any symptoms which may develop following your meal. This helps you pinpoint foods and drinks which bring on attacks. Avoid fried, fatty and spicy foods, big meals, alcohol and caffeine, which are almost certain to bring on acid reflux symptoms. Chew your food well and go for several small meals. Include lots of green leafy vegetables and fruits.

Certain foods will serve you well as acid reflux remedies. Bananas, apples, any type of melon, sunflower seeds, almonds and walnuts are all highly nutritious and make for good small meals. Every acid reflux remedy regimen should include at least one fresh salad of mixed greens daily.
