Home remedies can help alleviate the occasional heartburn episode
Home remedies can help alleviate the occasional heartburn episode, as well as some cases of GERD. When prolonged, uncontrolled acid reflux occurs, you put yourself at a higher risk of esophageal damage. This can include ulcers, a narrowed esophagus, and even esophageal cancer. Still, it’s important to know that home remedies alone may not work for acid reflux and GERD. Talk to a gastroenterologist about how some of these remedies can complement a medical treatment plan.
