Alcohol, nictotine and acidy foods are the leading cause of acid reflux in most people. If you can avoid those, particularly a few hours before bed you can greatly reduce your chance of having it occur. If your problem occurs at night, some have found that sleeping with their head on two pillows, so it's raised, helps too.
