Stomach acid uses the Cl ions from NaCl, so make sure you have enough salt to make your stomach acid. As we get older the production of stomach acid seems to decreases, causing more cases of reflux. There is nothing to be gained by lowering the stomach acid by drinking too much bicarb water. Then rest on a recliner without moving, to let your acid increase in your stomach so it will empty. Only drink slowly and stop drinking as soon as the pain goes away. If by chance you do have reflux a 1/4 or 1/2 tsp of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in water and drunk very slowly will usually stop the pain almost immediately. This allows my stomach to get to the proper acid level without filling too much. Now when I eat a bit more protein than usual, I might take a few Thorne Betane HCL and not drink any liquids until after my stomach empties the protein. I looked at Wikipedia and there are several medical or pharmacological "treatments" designed to not cure the problem: these treatments are designed to reduce stomach acid and will make things worse. The illium sphincter is relatively "stronger" than the esophagus sphincter, the esophagus sphincter leaks (called reflux) before the illlium sphincter starts emptying the stomach. With this expansion of the stomach is a resultant pressure increase.
The stomach is very elastic, and as I ate and drank, my stomach would not empty because the pH was too high and just expanded as I kept eating. Drinking liquids diluted the my stomach acid and it took a relatively long time for the pH to reach the correct level. The stomach contents, when eating protein, must get to the required pH to allow emptying the contents to the illium. My first (and only) reflux event ("heartburn") was caused by excessive stomach pressure caused by eating too much meat and drinking too much liquid.
I have stopped my acid reflux by avoiding drinking liquid when I eat protein.
