Heartburn - Herbal, Natural and Home Remedies

Chamomile is the best herb for use in the treatment of heartburn and other stomach problems.
Licorice is an alternative, but using too high a quantity of Licorice will increase headache, cause lethargy, and a may cause a serious loss of potassium. Also, it may cause high blood pressure.
For immediate relief of heartburn, make yourself a cup of ginger tea. Put 1/2 teaspoon of shredded fresh ginger in a cup of boiling water. Then let the ginger steep for about 10 minutes, strain the tea so that no ginger remains, cool to a drinkable temperature, and drink.
Add two teaspoons of anise seeds, fennel seeds, or dill seeds to one cup of boiling water. Cover and steep for 5 to 10 minutes, then strain, allow the tea to cool, and drink a few teaspoons every few minutes.
