Heartburn Diet Tips

Eating out may be hard because there are many ingredients used which you didn't know and might cause a heartburn attack. So, to give you a rough idea, here are some of the food groups you should avoid when you are dining out in a restaurant.

- Cream soups
- High fat food
- Greasy and fried food
- High-fat sauces, salad dressings, gravies and mayo
- Spices like chili and onions
- Citrus fruits and drinks
- Tomato-based food and products, including soups and sauce
- High fat cheese
- Alcohol
- Caffeine
- Chocolate
- Desserts that are high in fat, oil or butter
- Sandwich melts
- Club sandwiches
- Dairy products such as sour cream, milk shake, ice cream and regular cottage cheese

On the other hand, here are some of the food groups you can eat which will not cause you heartburn.

- Food rich in complex carbohydrates like bread, cereal, graham crackers, pretzels
- Apples, either the pulp or the juice
- Banana
- Baked potato
- Green leafy vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, carrots
- Legumes and lentils like green beans and peas
- Meat low in fat like extra-lean ground beef and skinless chicken breast
- Egg whites
- Fish without added fat
- Low-fat dairy products  
- Low-fat salad dressings and desserts
- White meat and lean cuts of meat
- Sandwiches with turkey, chicken, or roast beef on whole grain bread.
- Grilled or roasted meat
- Low-fat soups or broth
- Steamed vegetables

Aside from eating only the foods that are safe for your heartburn, you should also chew your food slowly. Eat in small amounts. Doing these will avoid any pressure on the stomach, which will avoid weakening of the lower esophagus muscle.

Don't smoke after eating. Not only is it bad for you, but nicotine is one of the causes of heartburn.
