Non-Pharmacological Treatments & Advice To Reduce Hyperacidity

  • Eat sparingly and slowly
  • Avoid certain foods that are more likely than others to trigger reflux, including mint, fatty foods, spicy foods, tomatoes, onions, garlic, coffee, tea and chocolate
  • Don\'t drink carbonated beverages, drink flat water instead of sparkling water.
  • Stay up after eating
  • Don\'t move too fast
  • Sleep on an incline
  • Lose weight
  • If you smoke, quit since Nicotine may relax the lower esophageal sphincter.
  • Check your medications: Some drugs including postmenopausal estrogen, tricyclic antidepressants, and anti-inflammatory painkillers can relax the sphincter, while others particularly bisphosphonates, which are taken to increase bone density, can irritate the esophagus.
