Who hasn\u2019t bolted upright in the night, awakened by a sudden and terrible burning sensation in the pit of their stomach? Whether you indulged in some overly spicy chili, or overdid it on those late-night leftovers, these quick\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0remedies will soothe your fiery stomach and help you get back to sleep!<\/p>

  1. The first thing you\u2019ll want to do when you\u2019re awakened by\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0pain, is to stand up. This helps keep the acid at bay while you go and get a full glass of cool water.<\/li>
  2. Drink the whole glass of water, and follow it with a mixture of 1 tablespoon of baking soda, and half a glass of water. Be careful though, if you have\u00a0High Blood Pressure<\/a>\u00a0or are\u00a0Pregnant<\/a>, this can cause\u00a0Water Retention<\/a>\u00a0or increase your blood pressure.<\/li>
  3. DON\u2019T drink milk or suck on mints to relieve\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>. Milk might feel nice and cool going down, but it actually contains fats and\u00a0Proteins<\/a>\u00a0that cause your stomach to secrete MORE acid and make your\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0worse! Mints, while they may feel soothing, actually\u00a0Relax<\/a>\u00a0the small valve between your esophagus and stomach, whose purpose it is to actually KEEP acid at bay! When this valve is relaxed, more acid can seep up and aggravate\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0symptoms!<\/li>
  4. This is going to sound strange, but downing a teaspoon of vinegar can help soothe\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0immediately! Why give your stomach MORE acid when it already seems to have enough, you ask? Sometimes,\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0is caused as a result of too little acid, and vinegar helps quell\u00a0Indigestion<\/a>\u00a0by giving your stomach a little extra \u201cjuice\u201d (no pun intended!) to do its job!<\/li>
  5. Certain foods can cause nighttime\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>, including: soda pop or beverages with caffeine (which you shouldn\u2019t be drinking before bed anyway!), alcohol,\u00a0Garlic<\/a>, chocolate (sorry!), citrus fruits, tomatoes and tomato-based products. Avoiding these types of food can help ease your\u00a0Indigestion<\/a>\u00a0if you frequently find yourself awakened with that intolerable burning!<\/li>
  6. Eating a banana each day works like an antacid to soothe\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>. If you\u2019re already stricken with\u00a0Indigestion<\/a>, eating pineapple or papaya (or drinking the juice) can help settle your stomach naturally. Some people also claim that eating a teaspoon of\u00a0Mustard<\/a>\u00a0(yuck!) can work immediately.<\/li>
  7. Avoid eating at least two hours before you go to sleep. Those late night snacks can keep your stomach busy all night and prevent you from easing into a deep, restful sleep. You may also find that sleeping on your left side or sleeping at a somewhat upright angle can keep acid down where it belongs.<\/li><\/ol>

    If you are awakened by\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0on a regular basis, or the pain is severe, or if you have\u00a0Heartburn<\/a>\u00a0with\u00a0Vomiting<\/a>, you\u2019ll want to consult your doctor immediately as it may be a sign of a more serious condition such as an\u00a0Ulcer<\/a>. Above all, avoid spicy, fatty and caffeine-containing foods before bed, and you should be able to drift off to sleep easily.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
