Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking Soda Tonic for Acid Reflux

The apple cider vinegar and baking soda tonic is a natural remedy for acid reflux. This tonic is taken several times a day to improve the alkalinity of the body.  In addition to helping with acid reflux, this remedy is often a help to other health issues, including arthritis, skin problems, blood pressure and fatigue. This tonic is not as strong tasting as apple cider vinegar in water alone. The baking soda greatly reduces the acid taste of the tonic.

Recipe for the Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking Soda Tonic

  • 2 teaspoons of raw and organic apple cider vinegar
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
  • water
  • Add the vinegar to a tall glass. Sprinkle in the baking soda. The solution will fizz. When fizzing stops, fill the glass the rest of the way with water.

This tonic is usually taken 1-3 times a day, between meals. 

Some people take a larger amount of vinegar and baking soda in water, even up to 2 Tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. It is generally best to start with less and increase the dose slowly if needed. ...
