My husband had a bad case of acid reflux. It was so bad he had to sleep sitting up. Stomach acid flowed back up into his esophagus due to a weakened lower esophageal sphincter. The sphincter is a muscle. Muscle needs protein. We were eating a lot of hot dogs and pizza at the time which do not have much quality protein. We started eating organic chicken, low fat grass fed beef, wild salmon and wild cod which are all high in protein. He also ate mild foods like potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes and zucchini. He also took 1 tsp baking soda in 4 fl oz water nightly. It took several months but he eventually recovered and does not need any medicine. He is also able to eat spicy food like chili without any problem.
