Well i thought i only got heart burn when i ate to much junk food apparently not,been up majority of the night with it felt like someone was digging a hole in my chest to escape out of my back but i had no rubbish food at all yesterday so googled it and some of the main contributions are garlic,tomatoes,peppers and onions,hmmm i had all these in my tea last night infact 8 cloves of garlic in there!

Anybody know any natural remedies that work instantly or quick because the antacids dont work
 
It will probably sound weird but for me drinking regular coca cola helps. It gives me the burps and that gives such relief!!
 
hmm wonder if pepsi max would do same thing cause im on slimming world so cant drink regular coke
 
Try drinking a glass of milk and eating an apple. This has helped me before ;)
 
I guess I'm lucky that Pepto Bismol works for me whenever I get heartburn! I actually got it from tapioca pudding one night this week.
 
i havent tried Pepto Bismol,mite get some for next time,i read that milk and apple works wll try it and also chewing gum does to but i hate chewing gum
 
Sometimes just some plain bread will kind of soak up the acid a bit. I hate it. I fight with it all of the time, but I never seem to get it from garlic (thank goodness). Sometimes my system is so sensitive, I can even get it from smelling something. For me, it is tomato-based stuff or things with vinegar that kill me.

Hope you find/found some relief!
