Almost everyone gets heartburn sometimes, but persistent heartburn or chronic heartburn may be cause for concern. What works best to treat heartburn depends on what foods or other factors may be causing the heartburn. Anyone who suffers from persistent heartburn, typically defined as heartburn symptoms experienced two or three times per week, should have their symptoms evaluated by their physician. Even people who experience symptoms only once a week may feel that they have persistent heartburn. Heartburn symptoms are not pleasant, ranging from a slight burning sensation in the back of the throat to chest pain and other symptoms that are similar to a heart attack. Whenever chest pain is involved, it is best to err on the side of caution.
There are many different causes of persistent heartburn and what works best to treat heartburn varies depending on the individual. Antacids or acid reducers typically work quickly. Some people are allergic to antacids. Some people feel they have a chalky taste. And some people just don’t like to take anything that they consider unnatural. What works best to treat heartburn for these people may be one of the natural remedies on the market.
Herbal remedies for indigestion and heartburn relief typically contain fennel, ginger or mint oil, alone or in combination.

Most prescription medications are designed to be taken on a daily basis to prevent persistent heartburn. For those who prefer an herbal remedy, there are products that are designed to help prevent persistent heartburn when taken on a regular basis. What works best to treat heartburn that is experienced frequently is often a preventive medication.
