I have never really suffered from heartburn until this year. Because I had never experienced it before , I almost didn’t know what it was or why I was having it. Strangest thing is that I was JUST eating an apple. Nothing spicy or even FUN! I thought heartburn was just for Mexican food or Beer. (I don’t consume either of those !)
So it got me thinking, “What are trigger foods for heartburn ?” It is surely a feeling I don’t ever want to have again so I 
made sure to stock up on Prilosec OTC just in case. Turns out everyone has different trigger foods, but some of the top are :
- alcohol, particularly red wine
- black pepper, garlic, raw onions, and other spicy foods
- chocolate (yes, I’m guilty)
- citrus fruits and products, such as oranges and orange juice
- coffee and caffeinated drinks, including tea and soda (yes, I’m guilty of coffee. BUT NO SODA !)
- peppermint
- tomatoes
Sheesh, apples are no where on this list and for the most part, I only partake in 2 of the 7 ! Not fair. For the most part I am pretty healthy. I’ve never needed home health care or anything like that Thank God !
Luckily, Prilosec OTC has a great deal right now that you and I can be stocked up for the next heartburn episode. From now until February 15th, buy two 42-count packs of Prilosec OTC in the same transaction and receive a $25 gift card by mail with this mail in printable rebate form. You can get the 2 boxes of Prilosec HERE at Amazon will cost a total of $43.50 (eligible for free shipping and no tax!) . Then send in the receipt and the UPC’s to get your $25 back = $18.50 out of pocket cost (or just $9.25 per box of 42 !) Now that’s a DEAL ! But hurry because you’ll need to purchase by Feb. 15, 2011 and postmark by March 1, 2011.
