Uncertain: Don't know of a "super food". However, try to avoid acid-producing foods: oj., tomatoes, coffee, tea fried foods, etc. Instead, try foods such as avocados, rice, alkaline water. Ask dr about meds such as proton pump inhibitors (prilosec. Prevacid, (lansoprazole) nexium).

No single food but: Diet can play a huge role in reversing this. Apple cider vinegar can temporarily alleviate symptoms but to permanently cure this you need a low carb diet as part of a program to rebalance your GI flora- see http://bit.Ly/1b1avqs
