Home Remedies for Acidity

NATURAL HOME REMEDIES FOR ACIDITY

Acidity refers to the excess secretion of acid by the gastric glands of the stomach. The stomach secrets hydrochloric acid that is responsible for proper functioning of the digestive system. This acid further secretes various digestive enzymes like pepsin that break the food particles for easy digestion. A normal level of acid is required in the stomach for proper digestion of the complex foods. When there is less secretion of acid the food is not digested properly and in case of excess secretion it gives rise to a condition known as acidity.

I think it's important to remember that for those who have acid reflux, it is NOT the same for everyone. Everyone's body is different and while some solutions may work for the majority of people, they do not work for everyone. My acid reflux is "less common" than that of others. I don't often get heartburn. Instead, when mine acts up, I get sick to the stomach. When it's really bad (has only happened twice in my life), it irritates my throat and I then have trouble swallowing. I've found two foods that give me heartburn: eggs and peanut butter. Does that sound normal to you?

Also, mint and/or (caffeinated) tea generally are NOT recommended for those who suffer from acid reflux. Mint tends to agitate it, as does caffeine.

Everyone's different. Listen to your body, know what works for you. If something regularly irritates your stomach, don't eat it!

#13 - Trista - 01/22/2010 - 00:06

For Acidity - Avoid anything very cold like icecream colddrinks etc, also stop drinking very chilled water.
If dealing with cough or throat infection crush the fresh onion by hand, add a small amount of sugar to it and chew, it soothens throat.

Hi Ramesh,
Frequent Urination cannot be related to diabetes only but also mainly major concerns with most of my clients having "Abnormal Gastric Complaints".
Hence kindly, have a regular check @ a laboratory near your place..
Fasting Blood sugar - Early morning @ empty stomach. &
PPBS - 2 hours after your morning breakfast (avoid sugar related food items).
I will be in reach

#57 - Prabhat - 10/17/2011 - 07:45

Just a reminder to check the acid ph level of the bottled water you purchase. This can be done by internet search or you can purchase pH testing strips and test it yourself. Usually bottled water labelled "Natural Spring Water" tends to be more alkaline than "purified" water.

Taking a few tablespoons (about 2-3) of honey each day seems to work for me in reducing my symptoms of acid reflux. Good luck everyone and good health!
