I have a LOT of trouble with acid reflux, so I have learned a few things. The best thing to do is to prevent it, if you can. Highly acidic foods like tomatoes and many fruits can make it worse, as can soda and eating too much at one time. If you can't prevent it, dissolve a 1/2-teaspoon of baking soda in water & drink it. It works immediately and is a lot cheaper than Tums, etc. I used to use Pepcid, but acid blockers can cause other problems, so I don't recommend them anymore.

eat a skinned apple once a day when you have it under control.
Use a small pinch of salt and water to calm down the acids.

Im always trying to calm down my acids. Its awful. I use Prevacid daily, but have breakthroughs. I eat five tums and it helps. I also take Mylanta too if all else fails.
Do u drink coffee? Rule one cup of coffee, one cup of water.
Lay off the spices, forgetaboutit.

dont dont drink milk. Makes it all worse.
