Will adding ground ginger to your tea or coffee help in releiving heartburn?

Question:

When you don't have pepto or tums or rolaids at hand I was wondering if ginger in the coffee or tea would help.

Answers:
Ginger works in a upset stomach, it is not a recommendation for heartburn. Also put away the coffee, tea, spicy foods, and chocolate for awhile. Since you don't have the regular products, sip on some ice cold milk. This won't take the heartburn away, but it will cool the burning temporarily, by coating your Throat, the passage to the stomach and lungs.

coffee has caffine and bitter compounds that will make it worse.
Tea might be better or just put the ginger in boiling water
