Coconut Oil and Raw CIder Vinegar
Erica in PA -
I had been on prescription acid-reflux medication for 11 years, and using this remedy have not needed a pill for about a year now. Take one tablespoon of Raw extra virgin organic coconut oil once in the morning, followed by a teaspoon or two of Raw apple cider vinegar mixed in a small glass of water. Repeat this process in the late afternoon or evening, prior to dinner. Take an extra dose of the vinegar beverage at any point throughout the day as needed or desired. The remedy can also be reduced to a teaspoon of coconut oil before each meal along with the vinegar beverage if desired or easier with your daily schedule.

Add Acid .....don't Antiacid
Tammy in South Carolina, USA -
I have found that adding pickles or pickle juice removes the acid reflux. The suggested remedy is apple cider vinegar and stomach enzymes.
I just have some tuna salad with pickles, or up my pickel intake some other way.
I was on the little purple pill for 2 years before I found this remedy. Hope it helps!

elevate the head of the bed to prevent acid reflux
bobbi henderson, health coach in New Port Richey, FL -Try this...One brick placed under each bedpost at the head of the bed... elevates your head and torso enough to prevent the reflux and you get a good nights sleep. This was recommended by my doctor... and If you like to sleep on your side...sleep on your left side. This works for me as well.
Another thing I try to do is not to eat after
6:oo PM and certainly not within 4 hours of going to bed.
I have also had luck in the past using slippery elm...singers and speakers often use this for sore throat as well.

Chamomile tea
Gilly in Bloomington, IN, USA -I find that chamomile tea, sipped throughout the day, greatly helps to keep my acid reflux at bay. This article Acid Reflux Remedies gave me the idea and also suggests peppermint and ginger as possible cures for heartburn.

Apple cider vinegar
Anonymous in Los Angeles, CA -When you're really in agony, just swallow 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. It will burn for a second or two, but after a few minutes you'll feel much better.
Also, you can prevent acid reflux symptoms by dissolving 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a cup of water and sipping it slowly once a day.
This cure has changed my life.

Ginger for Acid Reflux
Jocylen M. in Maryland -I'm surprised no one has mentioned ginger in these comments for relief of acid reflux.
My reflux became really bad when I stopped hormone replacement therapy. Acid suppressing drugs worked great but after 2 months I couldn't stop them without heartburn recurring.
One night I took some coworkers to dinner at a Korean style restaurant. Someone ordered persimmon punch, a concentrated cinnamon ginger drink. A few sips later, I felt fantastic.
After 1 month of adding about 3 tablespoons of the cinnamon-ginger drink to my tea in the morning and night, my low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels had dropped 30 points, and the heartburn was under control.
Unfortunately the cinnamon ginger tea has sugar in it, so a simpler alternative is to add a piece of candied ginger to your tea.
Ginger is amazing for heartburn and the Chinese have used it for centuries for motion sickness.
Thanks
Jocylen M.
