    Chamomile tea helps when I get heart burn.

    Pure apple cider vinegar, one with the mother in it. One tbsp daily and it'll vanish in no time.

    I try to avoid or limit some foods that cause issue. (Orange juice, tomato, strawberries, fried foods, etc.) I also, stay away from eating too close to bedtime (about 2 hours or so). Hope that helps.

    If you deal with chronic heartburn, what is your issue with taking a med until it's no longer a problem? My uncle felt like you, and died a horrible death at 51 from esophageal cancer. Were you not told chronic heartburn does that kind of damage?

    Apple cider vinegar helps. You can take it by itself or get the pill form.
