How Do You Use Natural Remedies For Heartburn And Cholesterol?
Got heartburn or high cholesterol? Maybe even both? Consider natural remedies. They do provide some relief from these conditions and some may even do better than your prescription drugs. Check with your doctor if any of the following is applicable for you: • Dietary supplements as remedies. Those containing melatonin, 1-tryptophan, Vitamins B6 and B12 and folic acid are comparable to Prilosec and it may do a much better job. As for cholesterol, research indicates that Vitamin B3 supplements may increase good cholesterol and decreases the bad cholesterol. • Skim milk or water. These neutralize your stomach contents for a while so that the burning sensation will temporarily go away. Do not overdo, though, especially on the milk because milk has fats that trigger more acid production. The key is moderation: 8 ounces will do. • Chew gum. Your drool or your saliva actually neutralizes limited amounts of acids, so chewing on gum after meals may help prevent heartburn from worsening. In addit
