Acid reflux is a condition where the acid in the stomach rushes upward and causes heartburn. It is very common these days due to eating disorders and extreme changes in eating habits. While there are a number of over-the-counter antacids that you can easily get, many natural home remedies have been proven to be equally effective with minimal or no side effects.
Vegetables, fruits, spices and herbs are traditionally used to treat health problems. They were the earliest form of medication. While most people rely on modern medication for most of their illnesses, many are now trying natural home remedies as they are proven to be more beneficial. Over-the-counter drugs can cause very bad side effects when used for a long time; this can be avoided using natural home remedies.
