I buy fresh orange juice and swig that whenever I feel like I'm gonna get an attack of heartburn, it usually does the trick.
I've tried pineapple juice but that sets it off even more, it's like drinking battery acid!
This could also be down to acid reflux which I had once. Apparently it's where your tummy makes too much acid, and some of it rises up into your wind pipe causing nasty heart burn. With me though, this got worse when I lay down as obviously being horizontal means acid can travel up more easily. Antacid tablets would work, but only for a few minutes, then it would be back. I went to my doctor who put me on a short course of pills which sorted it out - now if it reoccurs I find eating little and often helps, and I don't eat anything acidic like citrus fruits or alcohol.
