There are lots of vegetables that you can consume that are low in acid that rarely cause heartburn. A baked potato, cabbage, and green beans are healthy foods that you can consume that have a low chance of causing heartburn.
There are certain grains that are OK for sufferers of acid reflux syndrome. Graham crackers tend to soak up access acid in the stomach so that the chance of acid reflux is reduced.
Some people believe that all foods containing a high content of sugar should be avoided to reduce the acid in the stomach. I have found that jelly beans and red licorice for some reason do not cause acid to reflux into the esophagus.
