I SUFFER FROM THIS ON DAYS IN. THERE ARE 2 THINGS THAT I HAVE TRIED THAT REALLY WORKS. I HAVE A HIGH STRUNG JOB AND IS ON CALL 24/7. THIS FOR SURE WILL HELP. COST IS CHEAP.. DRINK SEVERAL SIPS OF APPLE CIDER VENIGAR. THIS WILL DROP THE ACID LEVEL IN YOUR STOMACH AREA QUICKLY. GO TO A NATURAL HEALTH FOOD STORE AND PURCHASE A BODY DETOXIFIER. REMOVE WASTE AND FOOD BUILD-UP. IF THERE IS NO HEALTH STORE NEAR YOU, FOR SURE USE FLUSH THE FAT. WITHIN 24 HOURS YOU WILL FEEL THE DIFFERENCE. REMOVE STRESS, UNHEALTHY "FRIENDS", AND RELAX AFTERWARDS.

You are supposed to have acid in your stomach, hydrochloric acid to be exact, and it is what digests the food. A lot of people occasionally suffer from indigestion or heart burn, the exact cause varies from person to person. Usual culprits are very spice foods, especially if you aren't used to them, a high fat meal, again worse if you are not accustomed to one, some of the cruciferous veg like cabbage, brussels sprouts or broccoli, and sometimes the simpliest foods. Sometimes it can also simply be something disagrees with you. Any of the antacid tablets will work, and work well for these odd occasions. They are mostly chalk and calcium, to chemically neutralize the acids a bit, and will generally make you feel better and burp nicely. They also aren't bad for the health, being good sources of dietary calcium that can be absorbed by the body later. Simpliest cure, they even come in various fruit flavors so you can pick your favorite burp flavor. Or you can go with a liquid form, my favorite is cream cherry. With a liquid you can almost feel the fire go out and hear the sizzle when it hits. It will also help if the friend stays in an upright position, sitting, until the fire is put out. That keeps it out of the esophagus where it can actually burn stuff you need. His problem is more than likely diet related, and if he identifies the most likely culprits, he'll be able to either avoid them or have the remedy ready at hand for later.

I have told so many people this answer, but everyone is afraid to do it, understandably. But it really worked for me, so i will tell you the logic behind it first.
I was suffering terribly, to the point that i was bringing up what looked like battery acid.
A chemist friend of mine gave me some bisodol ant acid tablets, but said to me, 'listen, digestion starts in the mouth.
Sometimes we produce too much acid, and take ant acids, which help for a short time. But tongue tells brain you have eaten ant acid, so brain produces acid to neutralise it!'

Next, an indian friend of mine told me to prepare soup with loads of chile in it. Because the acid will kill the acid.

And that's exactly what it did. If you suffer from acid, you won't be able to confront a bowl of chile soup. But after the first couple of mouthfuls, it'll be ok.
7 months of chronic acid disappeared in 10 minutes.
Trust me.

Tell him to have a glass of milk as this acts as a neutraliser in the acid in the stomach and stops all heartburn in its tracks.
