Heartburn remedies: Baking soda offers instant relief

Posted April 27th, 2011.

My brother who suffers from heartburn tried many heartburn remedies for some relief.  Many of these remedies are really effective in treating the condition.  There are remedies that offer temporary relief like milk and there are those that offer long lasting relief like ginger tea.  I haven’t experienced heartburn until one day we had a party at our house. I think I had too much to drink and eat.  So, I asked my brother for the quickest remedy.  He gave me half teaspoon of baking soda dissolve in a glass of water.  It felt instant relief!  I guess this is the reason why many people relied on this remedy.  However, there is no better cure than prevention.  So keep yourself healthy, don’t eat foods that can cause heartburn.
