How and when to eat?

If you have an acid-related disorder it may be helpful to eat little and often rather than the traditional three larger meals. Avoid eating a large meal at night. If you have reflux it may be wise not to lie down for a couple of hours after eating. You should have your last food and drink two to three hours before retiring to bed, especially if night-time reflux is a problem. Hurried, unrelaxed meals can give anybody indigestion so take your time when eating.
