Having a meal prepared and served for you in a restaurant can be quite a treat.
At least it is for a happy and healthy person who does not have to worry about
acid reflux striking in the middle of the meal. Eating out can spell trouble
with a capital “T” for people who suffer from heartburn because any of a number
of ingredients could, quite literally, set your chest on fire.

This does not mean that acid reflux sufferers can never dine out. They just need
to do so with caution and keep a few simple things in mind when ordering their
meal.

1. Do not Abandon Your Diet

Most people with acid reflux have been given specific
diets to follow by either a doctor or a referred nutritionist. Eating out does
not give you free license to eat whatever you want. You need to stick to your
prescribed diet and find something on the menu that will suit you. If you are
familiar with the restaurant you should be easily able to find something that
won’t cause you any discomfort. If not then discuss your requirements with the
waiting staff and see if the chef can “modify” an existing meal to better suit
you. Most restaurants won’t have any issue with this.

Tip! Over eating is a no go zone if heartburn plays are part in your life on a weekly basis. Cut down to smaller meals and be careful not to eat close to bedtime.

If you are tempted to taste something that is on the “forbidden” list then make
sure that you only take eat a bite or two of it. Doing so will allow you to
satisfy your craving without causing harm to your body.

2. Do not Overeat

Even if you are following your acid reflux prevention diet to
the letter it’s still important that you do not stuff yourself with food. A
common reaction for acid reflux sufferers who overeat is vomiting and let’s face
facts nobody wants to do that on a night out. The problem is that because eating
out is a special occasion for most people they tend to eat just that little more
than they normally would. For an acid reflux sufferer this could mean a sprint
to the bathroom and an embarrassing apology when they return to the table.

Tip! Eating a banana each day works like an antacid to soothe heartburn. If you’re already stricken with indigestion, eating pineapple or papaya (or drinking the juice) can help settle your stomach naturally.

Another reason for being almost forced to overeat when you are out with friends
is the portions served in many restaurants. They are far more than any one person
can comfortably eat yet we feel this desire or need to eat everything on the
plate in front of us. It’s almost like we’re obliged to do so. That is a crazy
way to think.

How can you combat this? Why not try having soup instead of the main course?
Also pay attention to how full you feel. When you start to feel even a tiny bit
bloated then you have had enough to eat. Continuing to eat after that point is
just asking for trouble.

There is no need to make excuses for not going out for a meal with friends just
because you have acid reflux. Just use common sense and follow the above tips
and you can still have a fun night out sharing food and conversation with good
friends.

Tip! Don’t lie down if you’re experiencing heartburn ? just like the tip above you want that acid to stay in your stomach and standing up and sitting up will aid in it not moving up into your esophagus.
