I’m curious if consuming sodium bicarbonate or Eno fruit salt could alleviate discomfort after eating a cheese pizza.

Edit: After reading some enlightening responses, I’m uncertain about the specific element causing my issues—whether it’s the cheese, sauce, or bread. I can consume each component separately without any problems. However, when I eat pizza, I often experience sluggish digestion, especially if it’s close to bedtime, leading to a burning sensation in the morning. I suspect it might be acid reflux triggered by a substantial meal. Perhaps a short walk after eating could help speed up digestion.

    Even actual digestion, breaking down with enzymes, starts in the mouth. The more you chew, the more digestion has already started before it hits your poor overworked stomach. And pizza works the stomach hard!
