What can i eat for my acid reflux?

What to avoid: More than what to eat, you really should ask what to avoid. Spicy foods and citrus products are typically blamed but is not the acid in these products, but the oils. In fact, any oily or fatty food will contributed to reflux. Alcohol and smoking also make it worse.

Almonds: 5-10 almonds before or after meals is helpful against reflux. Avoid caffeinated products with meals, try and chew well, eat slower and take a zip of water every bite or two.

Eat non-acidic foods: A person with heartburn should avoid vinegar and other acidic foods or liquids. Sodas (carbonated drinks), orange juice, and many other juices are acidic. The person is likely already taking acid blockers and antacids to decrease acidity in the stomach. It would be bad to eat or drink more acid, because the whole point of treatment is to decrease acid in the stomach and esophagus.
