For as long as I can remember I have suffered from heartburn and indigestion. As a pre-teen, I remember telling my mother every so often that my throat felt hot. As an adult, it became a little more frequent and let’s not even talk about pregnancy. While pregnant my heartburn symptoms made me really cranky and would often wake me up during the night.

I would say that I now get heartburn at least once a week since I’m not willing to give up certain foods that trigger my symptoms. Now I don’t have to because I have a simple solution. 

I have always enjoyed foods like dairy, acidic foods, onions, garlic, coffee, and my favorite spicy foods like curry and jambalaya. While I still love them, they don’t always love me back. Since I’m not willing to give these things up, I needed to find a compromise. That compromise is Nexium 24HR. I take one tablet in the morning and I’m good to go all day long. It couldn’t be easier or more convenient.

Now when my husband requests my Thai shrimp coconut curry, I don’t have to worry about suffering an hour after mealtime.

Serve over rice and dinner is done! Even my kids who are four and fifteen love this meal. It’s full of flavor and spicy, but not hot spicy. You could add some heat if you want by adding a small pinch of cayenne, but I like to leave this curry on the mild but flavorful side.
