One teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate in four ounces of water ends my acid reflux in under ten seconds.

On s rare day, it takes two doses. One generally works.

For a few cents, this neutralizes the acid and I go back to being a happy camper.

Strange how they mention a CT Scan, CT Scans don’t diagnose Acid Reflux(My Mom and I both suffer from it) you have to have an Endoscopy done to diagnose it

1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water is good too.

A spoon of sugar in warm water will do the same thing.

***One teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate***
I keep a box by the bed. I also brush my teeth with it. The only time I have a problem with reflux is when I eat too late or too much.

Any amount of sodium bicarbonate or other acid neutralizer or absorber has a suppressive effect on my reflux for a maximum of 45 seconds. Then back to the pain. Have to take a triple dose of a PPI instead.
