I am pretty lucky with my health considering how I eat and live. The only daily medication I have to take is for acid reflux. But If I don't take it I am in severe pain. And like grampahol said it can damage your throat. It caused me to lose my voice at one time just like laryngitis.
The quickest and easiest way to treat stomach acid is with a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water. It reacts with the acid creating carbon dioxide gas that you belch out. Better than eating a handful of Tums or Rolaids. Works just like the soda and vinegar volcano kids make for science projects.
But if it is a regular problem you should get on medication. I take over-the-counter omeprazole (generic Prilosec) and it works great.
