How we get cured of 'Gerd' what precautions, diet, medicines etc?

It is seen that even at the age of 20 or so people start suffer from 'gerd'. What diet you recommend or what medicines to take?

Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, affects at least an estimated 5% to 7% of the global population 鈥?men, women, and children. (Prevalence based on once per day heartburn.) Heartburn and/or acid regurgitation experienced weekly has been found to occur in 19.8% of individuals.
The rubric "lifestyle modifications" is the term physicians use when recommending non-pharmaceutical treatments for GERD. A 2006 review suggested that evidence for most dietary interventions is anecdotal; only weight loss and elevating the head of the bed were found to be supported by evidence.
Coffee, alcohol, and excessive amounts of Vitamin C supplements are stimulants of gastric acid secretion. Taking these before bedtime especially can promote evening reflux. Calcium containing antacids are in this group[3]. (Although a study published in 2006 by Stanford University researchers disputes the effect of coffee, acidic, spicy foods etc. as a myth.Foods high in fats and smoking reduce lower esophageal sphincter competence, so avoiding these tends to help, as well. Fat also delays emptying of the stomach.
Having more but smaller meals also reduces the risk of GERD, as it means there is less food in the stomach at any one time. Eating shortly before bedtime (For clinical purposes, this usually means 2-3 hours before going to bed).
