2.Alkaline foods add in diet
Banana, melons, cauliflower, fennel and nuts
3. Watery foods:
Celery, cucumber, watermelon, broth - base soups , herbal teas
Heart - burn home remedies:
1.Non - fat milk , low fat yogurt has soothing qualities and it’s healthy dose of probiotics ( which enhance digestion)
