What are some food to avoid that can cause heartburn?

The best way to avoid heartburn is to eat healthy foods. Heartburn can be caused by fried, fatty, or greasy foods, and by thick, creamy dairy products. Eating baked or steamed food instead of fried food and lowfat milk products or soy milk products can cut down on heartburn from those sources. If the heartburn is instead a result of acid reflux, it would be good to avoid sodas, spicy foods, or acidic foods like oranges.


Why does your left arm hurt when you have heartburn?

No it does not. Stomach acid is strong acid produced by the stomach to help digest the foods people eat. Normally the acid stays in the stomach, but when the acid backs up into the esophagus, it burns and causes the uncomfortable sensation known as heartburn (the cause of heartburn is gastroesophageal reflux disease). Therefore the pain your having in your upper left arm has nothing to do with heartburn.


What are some ways with home remedies that one can achieve heartburn relief?

Milk is said to be a good relief of heartburn. The acids and calcium in the milk helps relieve the pain. Many other remedies include chewing gum which can help you produce more sailva which in turn helps you push back all those acids.
