We all like desserts. Unfortunately, some things we like for our desserts can cause heartburn. Like chocolate. If you find some ingredients in a dessert causes heartburn, you don't have to give up all those sweets.

You may not know where to start. If you aren't sure what is triggering your heartburn, you can keep a heartburn diary to track the foods that cause you heartburn. Maybe you are one of those people who can eat chocolate (in moderation) without having heartburn.
