Discover 10 GERD Treatments Proven To Help
8. Betaine

Betaine is an amino acid that has been shown to neutralize pH levels in the blood, which may help reduce indigestion. According to a 2014 study, betaine increases the amount of hydrochloric acid in the body, which is needed to break down foods and metabolize nutrients. People with indigestion or GERD may have low levels of betaine. The top food sources of betaine include beets, wheat bran, quinoa, spinach, rye, sweet potatoes and turkey. Betaine supplements are available for purchase at any health food store.
