Yes, qualified : Listen to your body. Eat healthy unprocessed foods. Eat small amounts of food at a time. Hiatal hernia can be problem. Raise arms over head, raise on toes, and drop to jar body, drink water, and press from under left rib cage to navel 3 times before each meals and bedtime. Bad bacteria could be a problem, try raw apple cider vinegar and olive oil as a salad dressing. A.

Lifestyle & Reflux : Even though you don't have typical heart burn, your symptoms are consistent with acid reflux or gerd. If you would like to avoid medications you can work on changing your lifestyle and diet. Avoid eating within 3 hours of sleep. Decrease fatty foods, and avoid mint, tomato and orange juice. Exercise for 30 min 3x weekly, and avoid alcohol and caffeinated beverages.

Diagnosis first: Before trying any remedy i feel the proper diagnosis is most important. Gerd can lead to esophageal erosions leading to increased esophageal cancer risk. An experienced gastroenterologist should be able to determine if an endoscopic examination is necessary. Treatment options (both conventional and natural) can be discussed afterwards.
