Finding Foods That Cure Your Heartburn!

We are all different, and we are all on the hunt for foods that cure your heartburn. What works for one may not always work for others? Every individual should have heartburn medication ready or be able to identify which gives them heartburn. There are no foods that cure your heartburn; it is a condition one suffers when you have digested food or liquids that doesn’t agree with your system therefore suffering from indigestion or winds.

  

Even though you know some foods are not agreeing with you, you could have your stash of heartburn medication close at hand, now you too could have you favorite foods.

  

We know for a fact that acidy foods such as tomatoes, pineapples, strawberries, citrus fruits and not foods that cure your heartburn, they just add to acids in the stomach. Most spices could cause heartburn too, especially those used in curry.

 

Battling The Winds Of Change

 

Apples are just one fruit or foods that cure your heartburn, it also binds the stomach if it is upset, but it has to be oxidized. Therefore you peel it and grate it, and let it stand for a wee bit,tillit goes dark in color befor eating it.

  

Ginger is another plant, herb or food that cures your heartburn, flatulence, being bloated and indigestion. Since this is very potent it should be used in very small quantities. Take a small piece, grate before soaking in boiled water, strain it and make a tea with the brew.

  

Having too much indigestion could prove to be very embarrassing, in public especially. Antacids are a good relief for adults who suffer from indigestion. Medication are available for babies too. It is always better for babies to take their medication drops before meals, so that even before the foods have reached their tummies, the acids have been neutralized, helping with less winds.

  

If you are in a place where you cannot get any medication or foods that cure your  heartburn or indigestion immediately, you would have noticed that your belly seems swollen. Rest assured, there is still help available at hands reach. Yes! Pat your stomach/intestines in circles as this does give some relief, either way, but you have to pat it clockwise, i.e. from right to left starting at the top right hand corner working your way across, then down, right again and up again. It works. Those of you who suffer from constipation can do this lying down, feeling inside with your hand on the belly and breaking the jam.
