Food to prevent Heartburn?
The exact opposite from yesterday's post, here are 13 foods that fight acid refluc according to Health magazine.
- Oatmeal (I recommend steel-cut, not flaked or instant)
- Ginger (in moderation). very surprised this is viewed as calming instead of inflammatory
- Aloe Vera - i've used it on cuts but never tried eating it
- Salad - (hold the onions and tomatoes, fatty cheese & creamy dressing) - I have found my stomach did well with a lot of salads
- Bananas - low acid value great for 99% of GERD sufferers. I used to eat a banana a day and stopped recently for a low carb diet. Now my GERD is acting up. Perhaps I need that daily banana.
- Melon
- Fennel - I had some for lunch today
- Chicken & Turkey (skin free)
- Fish & seafood (never fried)
- Roots & Greens (Cauliflower, broccoli, asparagus, green beans, etc)
- Celery - boring but filling
- Parsley - "For thousands of years, parsley has been used as a medicinal herb to settle the stomach and aid digestion". We grow this outside. I'll have to eat more of it.
- Couscous & rice - I do find I do better with rice
