Pickle juice

Apples

If you apple cider vinegar or pickle juice is not so readily available then try just having a simple apple. It might be a cliche but the common phrase about keeping the doctor away, can hold true here and many people have reported that having an apple before goning to bed is especially effective in reducing nighttime acid reflux.

Pregnant women and those with kidney problems should, however, avoid this remedy.
