Acid Reflux affects 35 percent of African Americans

What you may not know is that Acid Reflux comes with a host of other symptoms including:

3. Avoid overeating
4. Eat no later than 2-3 hours before bed
5. Avoid lying down immediately after meals
6. Try eating pineapple or taking food enzymes at the beginning of your meals
7. Digestive bitters 20 minutes prior to eating may also help
If you think that acid reflux or another illness could be the reason behind your breath issues, contact your healthcare provider. It may save more than just that perfect date!
