Herbal and Homeopathic Treatment for Heartburn

Herbal remedies are becoming increasingly popular in today’s society. With the rising cost of healthcare many people are looking for other, more cost effective ways, to treat common ailments. There are many different options that are good at controlling the pain and burning of recurrent heart burn. These options are both inexpensive and can be made from common household ingredients.

Nuts

Many people are unaware of how almonds can be beneficial in treating heartburn. By eating a handful of almonds a person can actually reduce the amount of acid that a stomach is creating. Many believe that the almonds may actually have a calming effect on the stomach. Many naturalists swear by this method.

Apple Cider Vinegar

The Earth Clinic reports that Apple Cider Vinegar is another common treatment for stomach acid. Some people prefer to mix their apple cider vinegar with an equal part of baking soda. Still, some prefer to drink the vinegar straight from the bottle. It is well known that vinegar helps the body return the PH level back to normal and that may be why it is so useful in the treatment of stomach acid.

Pickle Juice

Pickle juice is also commonly used by many people as a natural treatment. It is mainly vinegar and if you do not have vinegar in your pantry it can be a nice alternative. If the thought of straight pickle juice makes you gag then try mixing it with a little honey, molasses or even pancake syrup. This can help the taste considerably.

Aloe Vera

The Aloe Vera plant has been well known for years as a way to treat a burn. However, drinking the juice is known to be very beneficial also. The Earth Clinic website reports that the juice can be used to treat excess stomach acid and some people swear by this when heartburn occurs. Some people even recommend taking this juice in small daily doses. Some health food stores actually sell Aloe Vera combined with Irish moss and this is known to be even more potent with relieving excessive acid or heart burn.

Herbal and homeopathic methods of treating heartburn can be an effective way to treat heartburn or stomach acid problems. Keeping a record of various methods can also help you determine what works best for you. Sometimes, it can be the simplest method that cures the problem, other times it is a combination of methods. Experimenting with various methods and treatments are helpful.
