Many of us have experienced heartburn after a heavy meal or eating certain foods. But what can you do to avoid heartburn?
It is important to know what foods and drinks can help prevent this condition and improve your well-being.
Ginger

To prepare a ginger drink, pour boiling water over several small slices. Drink without sugar and before meals.
Bananas
An alkaline product that reduces acidity and combats the unpleasant symptoms caused by heartburn.
Yogurt
Indispensable for those who constantly suffer from heartburn. The main thing is that the product is natural and not too fatty.
Melon
The fruit is an alkaline product, so it neutralizes acid perfectly. Only 1% of the population may experience a worsening of their condition after eating melon.
Oatmeal
Useful for any digestive system diseases. It will also help with heartburn, but you need to cook it in water or skim milk.
Green vegetables
Spinach, kale and other green vegetables have a high pH level, making them effective for heartburn.
Chewing gum
When chewing gum, the amount of saliva produced increases, which helps wash away acid from the walls of the esophagus, thereby eliminating an attack of heartburn. You can't chew gum on an empty stomach and choose mint.
