The better antacid for your heartburn

 









   Sometimes, we have to watch what we eat. Not just for our health, but for our hearts. Getting heartburn is something we all have to deal with. Sometimes we have acid reflex disease 








     With some antacids, you have to chew, with this one, you take a pill and swallow. Once being called Zantac 75; they would have these ads that would show that Zantac works better than Pepcid AC or others. Never had this, but it seems to work. They have another brand called Zantac 360. It is said to relieve heartburn before it begins.











   Pepcid AC used to be in tablet only. Now a days, it seems Pepcid AC and Pepcid complete are starting to become chewable like other antacids usually can be. Does it mean it works? It depends on the degree of heartburn. Sometimes, if you take it after the heartburn, it might take a while to go through your system and then attack the antacid.











  A spoonful of this chalky liquid would help the heartburn go away. Mylanta was considered an antacid when it came out. Although, it hasn't been known as the best. They try to make tablets as well as chewable to get rid of the heartburn. There was a recall around 2010 when some Mylanta was pulled off of shelves for finding small traces of alcohol.










  I don't really use Pepto Bismol on heartburn as much I do for an upset stomach, but this pink stuff coats every part of your stomach from the heartburn to upset stomach. Even diarrhea. Yep, this pink stuff can cure anything. There's also a theme song in the commercial as well. Seems to be uncomfortable to me.











      Plop, plop. Fizz, Fizz...oh what a relief it is. It is. Alka-Seltzer is not just for heartburn. It can be used in anything. They used to have an old ad with a freaky looking mascot that looked like a wind-up toy. They even had a quote saying "I can't believe I ate the whole thing" where someone is not feeling well, and another person tells them to take an Alka Seltzer.











    I take these antacids and eat them like candy. Why? Well not only do I eat food that is antacid, but this particular antacid since it contains Calcium. Yep, they have chewable, smoothie relief and gassy relief. Having it assorted flavors as well as tropical and regular. I have used these antacids for years and they do work better than Pepcid AC since it targets the heartburn at the source.


 









     They're so many antacids to choose from and sometimes it's best to find one that works for you. You can find one that can work fast, targeting the heartburn while others take longer. Other times, you might need a prescription from your doctor. For me, I have heartburn issues, and I know which antacid is right for me. Food can give us heartburn, while others can give us good meals. It's all in the choosing
