Watching What You Eat Can Be A Natural Remedy For Heartburn

Have you ever felt a mild, yet sufficiently irritating pain in your chest after eating dinner, or crumpled to the floor in extreme, agonizing pain minutes after you stole some dessert from the kitchen fridge? If so, were you suffering because of karma? No, but maybe you should stop stealing food all the same. Was it because you were a glutton? Could be, but not really. Chances are you were in pain because of the food you ate, so you should consider taking a natural remedy for heartburn.

You should know that you didn't get heartburn because your dinner went bad or because your fridge is on the fritz. Even if your dinner was perfectly fine (which it probably was), it wouldn't have mattered. Heck, it could have been prepared by the finest culinary talents in the world, using the freshest and most mouth-watering ingredients known to man, and you would still have gotten heartburn. It's not the food. It's you.

Yes, there are foods that cause heartburn. But that doesn't necessarily mean that those same foods would automatically trigger a heartburn in every person who eats them. For these foods to cause heartburn, the person who eats them must be predisposed to heartburn.
