GERD: Eat small bites; chew thoroughly; eat slowly; avoid spices; minimize meats. Take baking soda 1/2 or 1 teaspoon dissolved in 4 ounces of water as frequently as every 3 hours.

PPI: Please confirm with a doctor that you have GERD ( we need to go over the specific symptoms, positives and negatives) Once that is done 1st line treatment is lifestyle modification and then medications like PPI (Omeprazole) , usually help.
