NATURAL WAYS TO RELIEVE HEARTBURN (ACID REFLUX) II

Continuing the posts on natural ways to relieve heartburn (acid reflux), today's post is a tasty one. Snack on bananas. Bananas offer multiple heartburn-busting benefits. Scientists have found that bananas ease reflux symptoms quickly by neutralizing stomach acid. Bananas are also rich in pectin, a type of soluble fiber that helps keep food moving through the digestive tract, preventing stomach acid from building up. 

If you have a problem occasionally with acid reflux, better known as heartburn, you may want to keep some bananas on hand. And as always, if the problem persists, see your doctor.
