Replying to [germex]:Ever tried using a Fire Extinguisher !
Try.... ''Nux Vomica'' ( 6 / 7 drops in 30 ml of water).

Replying to [germex]:if all else fails .. Eat Chinese meals. I always come back from China feeling so healthy

Hi Sunil,

You know that there is no fire extinguisher when you need one! Anyway, here we can get nux vomica as a homeopathic medicine, but I don't know the dosage. In fact, a doctor prescribed it to me long time ago, but can't remember what for. So I guess vinegar is still the easiest option. Just a drop or two...

Replying to [germex]:You are quite right---This is a Homoeopathic Medicine..also called 'Mother Tincture'.
You can have this as it is quite safe.
Dosage: A couple of drops in 30 ml of water...2 / 3 times a day--till you find relief.

They mention 1/2 teas of vinegar with 1/2 teas of water.  After about 4 sips.  It actually worked.  My heartburn stopped.  The only other way was 3 Tums, 4 pepcid ac, or 6 Rolaids.   This will save me money.  I only get heartburn like  once or twice a year.  Mainly when I drink.  Anyway, have to go.  Peace Out.

While Tums and similar products do work when it comes to surpressing the symptoms, be aware that they also disrupt proper digestion. Vinegar (and lemon juice) on the other hand replenish your stomach's natural acidity, thus not only getting rid of the heartburn, but also improving digestion.
