Page 1 of Stomach acid tip

OK. Bear with me on this and save a fortune on gaviscon type medication.

Your stomach contains quite powerful (hydrochloric) acid.

When you eat carb rich food (chocolate, pastry, ice cream, cake and crisps) like you do at Christmas, the acid in your stomach often can't cope and churns up and you get heartburn.

If you help your stomach with a bit of dilute acid, it can help it cope and settle you down in a few minutes.

A quarter inch of apple cider vinegar topped with an inch of water, so it tastes vinegary but doesn't burn going down works a treat for me.

A bottle of ACV in Sainsbury's is about £1.50 and lasts ages. Maybe not good if you have ulcers but try it.

It sounds counterintuitive but it really does work. Natural too.

I have a cast iron stomach and could even do a bush tucker trial on 'I'm a celebrity let me outa here' :D

Anyway good tip for others.

This sounds really useful advice, but it needs music recommendations to go with it! Maybe a bit of The Prodigy?

Is it OK if the vinegar is injested with chips?

Some amber nectar helps

In truth I get acid reflux quite a lot so always carry around indigestion tablets so in all seriousness will give this a go (eating too many carbs definitely the trigger for me).

surely as its made with apples, just a few pints of Cider will have the same effect, and as a  bonus clealry counts towards your five a day?
