work out. How can I prevent this? I have eaten before a workout. I always eat after a workout. About an hour before I work out I usually drink a protein shake with fruit in it. But sometimes I get heartburn so bad I have to stop in the middle of my routine.

It is the fruit in your protein shake. Try not to eat anything about an hour before exercising, and save the protein shake for after the workout. Something like that was happening to me and my trainer told me to not drink anything sweet one hour before exercising, only plain water.Good Luck!

The best thing to do is stick with ice water-I've suffered from horrible reflux and ice water is great. Eat after a workout, but avoid food within an hour of when you start, because that will mess you up, and I hope that helps! Good luck!
