In order to stop heartburn naturally without any drugs or dangerous side-effect laden traditional medical approaches we must first understand what causes heartburn in the first place.  Heartburn is caused by the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) not properly contracting.  Think of the lower esophageal sphincter as a valve that connects the stomach to the esophagus.  When this doesn't contract, it's open, so stomach acids can travel from the stomach upwards into the esophagus causing heartburn.  So I recommend first and foremost eating a diet rich in minerals and alkalizing nutrients.  Minerals help the nervous system and muscles contract.  You have some sort of mineral deficiency that is causing the les to not contract properly.  This may be a potassium or magnesium deficiency, maybe a combination of both.  Eat more green leafy vegetables.

Also, eat bananas! Bananas contain an antiacid compound that helps aid in removing heartburn.  Apple Cider vinegar is also a great remedy to help the digestive system detox downward (instead of upward) properly so that your body will remove the acids and digest them properly.

Also, I recommend using mineral rich salts in your diet as opposed to regular salts.  Mineral rich salts such as himalayan sea salt and sea salt etc... These will contain minerals that will help alkalize the body as well as help muscle contraction which should help the les contract better.
