Stress can cause gastric distress. Excessive acid production that regurgitates into the esophagus causes the heartburn and nausea symptoms. Carry a packet of Rolaids and take one or two whenever you get symptoms.
DGL (from the health food store) or aloe vera gel may be helpful. Keep a food diary and avoid food or drink that aggravates your condition. Pepcid AC may be helpful in severe cases. Try to chill out and learn relaxation techniques. Some people get good relief from reflux by taking monavie juice.

Fried foods can cause it. Anything with caffeine or carbonated can cause acid reflux. You can control it by watching what you eat. Acid reflux is kinda like heartburn but when you burp stuff comes up and it's a burny sensation.
