Drink Baking Soda

Baking soda contains sodium bicarbonate, which can work as an antacid to neutralize the acid in your stomach. You can purchase this ingredient in a pill or capsule form, by prescription or over-the-counter. To use this powder as a remedy for heartburn, stir 0.5 to 1 teaspoon in a cup of water, then drink all of it. You would do this once every 2 hours to alleviate the symptom. If you are treating heartburn with baking soda in kids, make sure to ask your healthcare provider to use the right dosing. [4]
