My son has been having trouble with acid reflux after coming down with a sinus infection and receiving treatment with antibiotics.
I did not want to put him on prescription medicine at such a young age, so I began looking at heartburn remedies. One of the reasons heartburn prescriptions should be avoided for children is that they block the absorption of certain key minerals, which might lead to bone or even growth issues.
However, it has become quite a problem for us as the heartburn has been keeping him up at night. He needs his sleep to stay awake in school (you know how kids are) and I was getting to the point where I would try just about anything.

One of the more viable heartburn remedies I came across was chewing bubble gum. My son loves to chew gum anyway and I figure as long as he does not stick it on the walls or on the furniture there was no harm in trying it out.
It works surprisingly well. I made sure that he chews it after eating and then before lying down for bed while watching TV. I have him brush his teeth first at night and then give him sugar free gum to chew on afterwards. He does not brush his teeth after chewing the gum and the dentist said that this was okay as long as it was sugar free gum.
The reason I do it this way is I have noticed for some reason one of the major triggers for my son’s heartburn is brushing his teeth. Perhaps it is something in toothpaste that is causing his problem (not that there was ever a problem before taking antibiotics). As a result, I always make sure he brushes his teeth at least 30 minutes before bed and then have him chew gum for a bit before lying down.
I am pleased to report that he no longer has acid reflux at night and now sleeps soundly.

If you love barbeque like me, you will love the idea of an electric smoker. These have gotten very popular in recent years as an alternative to the old charcoal smokers.
