10. Agrimony

Agrimony is a little known herb that works to relieve stomach upset and restore proper function to the gastrointestinal tract. Many people don’t realize that acid reflux also causes vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea. If you suffer from these symptoms with acid reflux, you will find that agrimony is super helpful in these areas and should be your first choice in helping to treat this problem.

 

11. Ginger

Ginger is another herb that can help stop the nausea and vomiting that some people experience with acid reflux. Ginger root has been shown in studies to have powerful medicinal compounds that absorb stomach acid while calming the digestive system. You can drink a cup of fresh ginger root tea after meals, or take a ginger capsule after each meal to calm an irritated gastrointestinal tract.

 

12. Licorice Root

Licorice, in addition to German Chamomile, is another ingredient in the herbal treatment Iberogast. One study used 80 patients that were suffering from acid reflux and/or gastroduodenitis and gave them licorice for 3 weeks. The results showed that there were noticeable improvements in erosive alternation in 75 percent of the subjects. This suggests that licorice can provide therapeutic and preventative help on acid reflux related symptoms.
