10 Home Remedies For Acid Reflux
Home Remedy #4: Baking Soda
Baking soda or sodium bicarbonate is a chemical compound that is a white crystalline. It often appears as fine white powder. It can be used as a home remedy for the treatment of indigestion and heartburn as its reaction with stomach acid leads to the production of carbon dioxide, salt, and water.
It is an acceptable remedy to provide occasional relief but can cause more harm than good in rare cases. The use of baking soda as a remedy for acid reflux has been reported to damage the stomach lining. However, the only fatality recorded associated with the consumption of baking soda in water was in 1939.
