heartburn baking powder

Baking powder tore my chest up even worst!! Maybe it will work for you...but I found that drinking really cold water helped me..and propin myself up on pillows...

baking soda is the same as sodium bicarbonate. Baking powder is baking soda with a couple additives (corn starch and cream of tartar). As far as why you would want to do this, baking soda can be used as an antacid. I'm unsure of why you would want to do it so many times a day (that equates in my mind like taking tums 2-3 times a day). Also you do need to be careful because stomach acid is supposed to be there and is supposed to be acidic.

I get heartburn really bad also. I do the baking soda when I run out of my other heartburn meds. I just get a small glass and fill it and put about a tablespoon of baking soda.

I have acid reflux and bleeding ulcers so milk and dairy don't work for me. If you mix a table spoon full of baking soda in a glass of water and drink it the baking soda will neutralize the acid in your tummy giving you heart burn. I only use enough water to dissolve the baking soda because it isn't tasty but it works! Good luck!

I had really bad heartburn my entire preg. I could drink water and somehow have heartburn lol he was born with tons of hair! Milk is only thing tht helped me.

Does it have to be pure baking soda or no? Because i have baking powder.

I didn't use packing powder. I used actual baking soda and mine was right.

works wonders since i dont think we can use alkaseltzer due to the aspirin. i mix teaspoon of baking powder with half a cup of water. It stops it right away but u will also belch good. not the tastiest.

Hmmm I use baking soda to whiten my teeth, like straight baking soda, couldn't imagine drinking it....

Baking soda/powder baths or you can put baking soda/powder or corn starch on the rash it will suck out the heat. I get prickly heat rash every summer and the cool bath with baking soda helps tremendously. Good luck I know it *****!

When i do get heartburn and take one it takes a little while to kick in but then no sign of heartburn for the rest of the day . watch what you eat and one pill may last two days.

Hi ladies I'm 34weeks I can hardly sleep anymore I'm always waking up with heartburn and dont know what to do besides drink milk and that even hardly helps . Wondering if anyone knows some tricks ?

Tums. Or baking soda with water. You could try bananas tho sometimes they work.

Milk and gaviscon / gaviscon cool tablets. Due to the high salt content in baking soda, pregnant women shouldn't use it as treatment for heartburn. Can also send your blood pressure high. "Baking soda is rich in sodium, so its excess intake can create risks and complications in people who have high blood pressure.

HORRIBLE heartburn! What can I do to help relieve it? And why does it happen with anything I eat???

Any ways to get rid of heartburn and deal with acid reflux while pregnant?

Ya that's why I would just ask the doc what you can take. Unfortunately the hormone relaxin is to blame for the heartburn. I hope it gets better.

It may taste nasty but the baking soda in water really helps.
