My 18 yr old son suffers from indigestion and heartburn in the morning. He's into the habit of not eating breakfast before going to college. And eating trash at erratic times. Pls suggest some remedy. Totally clueless on what to give him for breakfast also as he just doesn't eat anything...help...

Well! I think, he needs to eat something or the other in the morning as he has already started suffering from indigestion and heartburn. If nothing at all, then you must tell him to have banana. Banana not only a good source of phosphorous but it also helps in relieving heartburn. But I think you must make him aware of the fact that if he will not eat on time, the problem of indigestion can become worse over the period of time. It can also turn into a problem called GERD. And then there will be so many restrictions in eating this food or that, which he would not like especially at such young age. Either drink shake, eat chapati, cheela, sandwich, fruits but one must eat breakfast for sure. http://www.businessinsider.in/Everything-Bad-That-Happens-To-Your-Body-When-You-Skip-Breakfast/articleshow/21498769.cms http://www.livestrong.com/article/359763-breakfast-foods-to-eat-with-acid-reflux/ http://www.drgourmet.com/gerd/breakfast.shtml http://greatist.com/health/healthy-fast-breakfast-recipes
