Do you suffer from exercise-induced heartburn? It can really be miserable, not to mention put a serious kink in your efforts and sap your motivation to work your hardest. So in order to stave it off completely, or deal with it most effectively when it does strike,
try these tips:
- Pay attention to your diet, and do some problem-solving
- Eat something small that you know helps reduce your chances of heartburn right before you workout.
- Experiment and find the ideal time to eat before working out -- whether it's 30 minutes or 2 hours, everybody is different.
- Pay attention and experiment to see if all exercise, or only certain kinds, trigger heartburn attacks.
- Don't be afraid to treat heartburn symptoms, for example taking a small sip of vinegar can neutralize the acid.
- Try commercial over-the-counter treatments like TUMS or some other calcium-based antacid. Experts say it certainly can't hurt to try.
