Be aware of the kind of beverages you<br />

drink and how much you drink with your<br />

meals. Have you ever had four sodas with<br />

dinner? If you lower the amount of liquid<br />

you drink, it can help eliminate reflux.<br />

DON’T SELF DIAGNOSE<br />

Never diagnose yourself. People<br />

fall into the easy trap of self-diagnosis,<br />

and most of the time, online searches<br />

are methods to perform self-diagnosis.<br />

If you believe you may have this<br />

condition due to symptoms, such as<br />

stomach discomfort and regurgitation,<br />

then you should talk to your doctor.<br />

There are other disorders that are similar<br />

in effect to acid reflux. You need to ensure<br />

what you have is really acid reflux to avoid<br />

the hazard of self-medicating. Your doctor<br />

can verify if you do have acid reflux.<br />

8<br />

KEEP IT COOL AND HANG LOOSE<br />

Reduce stress if you have acid<br />

reflux. While stress itself does not cause<br />

acid reflux, it can increase the likelihood<br />

that you will engage in activities that<br />

do, such as overeating, smoking, and<br />

drinking. This can help reduce the<br />

acid that is produced by your body.<br />

Constrictive clothing and tight belts are<br />

not necessary. This actually worsens<br />

symptoms by constricting your stomach.<br />

If you’re suffering from acid reflux,<br />

wear looser clothing. If you do wear a<br />

belt, allow it to be held around your<br />

waist more loosely.<br />
