I take 1 mg sodium chloride pills every day. Aside from the occasional heartburn, I think they help.

That's been my experience, too.  The sodium can help retain fluids, but the associated chloride seems to increase the acidity of my stomach in uncomfortable ways.

My doctor had me on IV normal saline infusions (1 liter per week) and they gave me the worst heartburn.
