Try this easy home remedy: baking soda! I dissolve about a half teaspoon in an ounce or so of lukewarm water and chug it down, followed by about six ounces of my pedialyte (water or whatever will do). I then belch like a stuck pig for a few minutes, but my tummy feels much better! Great for indigestion, heartburn, IBS symptoms, etcetera. Added bonus: raises your sodium levels if you have Dysautonomia! Beat that with a stick! It tastes icky, I admit, but it works better than anything under the sun. Sit up for several minutes, though…until the belching part is over ;)
