There isn't much that is as uncomfortable as the burning and irritation caused by heartburn.
It keeps you from enjoying life as much as you could but making your paranoid about what you are eating, and then when it happens, there isn't much that you can do about it.
Sure you try eating some antacids or perhaps taking some other pill but that is just like putting a Band-Aid on a deep wound, it covers over the problem but it is still there, waiting to crop up again.
Here are some things that can give you some heartburn relief.
The first thing that you will be tempted to do is to grab some Tums or some other heartburn medicine.
That would work if it is a simple case of one time heartburn, but if heartburn has become a real problem then you should consider doing something that will take care of the cause and not only the symptoms of heartburn.
Some of the natural cures for heartburn that have been used through the ages is to swallow a spoonful of vinegar, to drink a couple ounces of Aloe Vera juice (this is done either when you feel the heartburn coming on or you can drink the juice before you eat something that can give you heartburn).
Other people have claimed that they ate raw almonds in order to get some heartburn relief.
I think that many of these heartburn cures are dependent on the individual, and you need to stumble on the one that works for you.
Of course there are some great methods for heartburn relief out there that will help you both in the short term and overall with your battle against heartburn.
They are all natural, which I like, and work quickly, and who doesn't want their heartburn to be gone quickly.
