Tomorrow is the big day people and (if you’re anything like
me) that means not only that there is turkey fun on the horizon, but also the
promise of horrible heartburn from overeating foods too many rich foods. Well,
never fear, I found two sure fire heartburn remedies that I’I've found really
work! That way you don’t need to worry about the effects of chugging a bottle
of pink stuff or popping Tums.
First, and most simply, head to the fridge for a glass of
cold milk. I know this sounds too simple, but man does it work. I’m too used to
stress indigestion. When I can barely breathe because I have acid reflux a
glass of milk always does the trick. I've used skim and whole, and both seem to
work perfectly (most of the time).
If you need something with a little more punch, or you just
hate/don’t drink milk, than here’s another simple remedy: mix 2 tablespoons of
apple cider vinegar with ¼ cup of water and chug! If it’s just too sour for you
to handle, you can also add a tablespoon of honey (which has its own soothing
properties). You can repeat this every 10 minutes or so as needed. The elixir
should kick-in in about 3 minutes, but you can repeat for the really bad cases.
