15 Home Remedies for Acid Reflux
Slippery Elm

Eating bark to treat acid reflux? It sounds crazy, but the bark of the slippery elm tree has been used for centuries as a way to treat many conditions--including heartburn. When mixed with water, the bark creates a gel-like substance that can help coat the esophagus and reduce inflammation. Unless you're already familiar with the plant, it's best to buy slippery elm bark from a retailer you trust as opposed to going out and looking for it yourself.
