Reflux happens when acid flows back to the esophagus causing pain and irritation. And one of the easiest ways to prevent reflux from happening is modifying your diet by eliminating the foods that can trigger it and incorporating the good ones in your diet.
A diet with vegetables, protein, and fruits is best, and here are some of the best foods for an acidic person:
- Banana – this is a low acid fruit which may not only take away the discomfort but will also help prevent indigestion.
- Melon – this mildly-acidic fruit is high in alkaline and magnesium.
