Ginger
You might already grab ginger when you have a bellyache, but its stomach-calming properties are thought to help reduce acid reflux symptoms too. Try making a soothing tea, by steeping sliced fresh ginger in hot water, or chewing on unsweetened ginger candies. This may help settle the stomach, Dr. Sonpal says.
That said, every so often, certain people find ginger makes their acid reflux worse. “Trust your body,” Foroutan says. Steer clear of ginger ale, too. The carbonation and sugar could both aggravate your acid reflux.
Avocado
High-fat, fried foods are more difficult for your stomach to break down, making them a common reflux trigger. However, healthy unsaturated fats, like those found in soothingly creamy avocado, can actually help keep heartburn at bay and keep your acid levels at a healthy place, Dr. Sonpal says.
