Carbohydrates

• Carbohydrate-heavy foods are great for the stomach and absorb much of the excess stomach acids. Breads and pastas are good foods to eat.
  
  

Fat

• Fat takes longer to digest, causing the stomach to produce more stomach acids to destroy it. Especially avoid fast food.
  
  

Fruits

• Some fruits have a high acid content, contributing to stomach acidity. But berries, melons, bananas, peaches and pears will not trigger acid reflux.
  
  

Drinks

• Herbal tea and juices are the best drinks for acid reflux. Mineral water can help absorb some of the stomach acids, relieving acid reflux.
  
  

Spicy Foods

• Spicy food is discouraged for those with acid reflux. But a study in 2009 showed that spicy food does not affect acid reflux and is safe to eat.
