Avoid rushing through meals, and take your time to enjoy and properly digest your food.

Eat smaller, frequent meals instead of large meals. It helps reduce the amount of food in the stomach, decreasing the likelihood of acid reflux.
After meals, avoid lying down or reclining for at least two to three hours. Gravity can help keep stomach acid in the stomach when you're in an upright position.
Smoking weakens the lower oesophageal sphincter (LES), the muscle that prevents stomach acid from flowing back into the oesophagus. Quitting smoking can help improve GERD symptoms and overall health.
