Remedies to prevent acidity in Ayurveda

Gastric acids are digestive aids produced by the stomach. However, the corrosive effects they cause are mitigated by the secretion of other substances. When the secretion of these chemicals is impeded, the stomach lining is damaged, resulting in acidity, commonly known as acid reflux.

A sedentary lifestyle or mindless eating habits might contribute to acidity.  Certain foods might cause the digestive process to malfunction, resulting in excessive stomach acid output.

Chronic acidity can also cause heartburn, a lasting pain in your chest similar to being poked by multiple needles at the same time. As you lie down and try to sleep, the discomfort and suffering worsen. If you are searching for better ayurvedic practices, Ayurheritage offers the finest ayurvedic treatment in Dubai.

 

What ayurveda says about acidity

According to Ayurveda, elevated pitta dosha and impaired agni ( digestive fire) are the two primary reasons behind hyperacidity. To treat acidity and promote digestion, Ayurveda suggests a variety of medicines, dietary changes, and lifestyle changes. Our ayurvedic center in Dubai offers the best ayurvedic practices for improving digestion.

To minimize acidity and other gastrointestinal disorders, Ayurveda recommends avoiding fermented foods and beverages.

 

Causes of Acidity 

Acidity may occur as a result of various factors.  It mainly includes food, lifestyle, and mental/emotional state.

Food 

The food you eat has an impact on your body's digestive processes and general health. Acidity is caused by eating the wrong meal combinations at the wrong time, or by eating spicy, fried food immediately followed by soda or milkshake. Here are some examples of mindless eating that can contribute to acidity.

  • Eating too much junk food including, burgers chips, pizzas, and french fries.

  • Excess intake of tea and coffee.

  • Inadequate water intake

  • Usage of excess spices in food

 

Lifestyle

Your way of living does have a direct impact on acidity. The following are some of the lifestyle practices that can contribute to hyperacidity.

  • Overworking 

  • Skipping meals 

  • Inadequate Sleep

  • Lying down in bed/ settling down in a chair immediately after meals.

 

Mental/ emotional state 

What you feel or think affects how your body functions. A bad emotional or mental state can upset your stomach and make digestion difficult. Here are some of the most prevalent emotional/mental hyperacidity triggers.

  • Work stress

  • Anxiety, fear, or anger issues.

 

Signs and symptoms 

According to Ayurveda, each person has a unique constitution and may experience distinct acidity symptoms. However, certain acidity symptoms are shared by the vast majority of people. Let us have a look.

Acidity manifests itself as heart, throat, and chest burn, followed by repeated, sour belching. These symptoms frequently result in an aversion to food, even when you are hungry.

You may also feel acid reflux, often known as the regurgitation of food combined with stomach acid. In severe circumstances, acid reflux can cause regular bouts of vomiting or diarrhea. Other common symptom of acidity is bloating, pain, and heaviness caused by the production of excess gas in the lower belly.

 

Ayurvedic management of acidity

Ayurveda promises several simple home remedies for acidity that are highly effective in ensuring your quick recovery. If you have hyperacidity reflux, you can try any of the Ayurvedic remedies described here. If you have any concerns contact our ayurvedic hospital dubai.

Indian gooseberry: It is an Indian fruit high in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. This ayurvedic medicine aids in the reduction of pitta, which according to Ayurveda is fiery and is characterized by excessive heat. Acid reflux is caused by an increase in pitta. It is simple to consume gooseberry because it may be eaten raw or in the form of juice.

Cumin seeds:  You can grind cumin seeds into a powder and then add half a spoon of it to water; presumably one liter. The solution should then be kept boiling and filtered. You must ensure that you consume this solution rather than regular water. Take this water-based solution daily until you recover. This is a very good hyperacidity treatment.  

Clove: Cloves increase saliva production, which aids digestion and reduces acidity symptoms. Simply eat a clove and keep it in your mouth to relieve acidity. The oils generated by the clove will quickly reduce acidity.

Ginger: Use ginger to aid digestion and assist absorb and assimilate key nutrients in this ayurvedic remedy for acid reflux. It also protects your stomach against ulcers by increasing mucus secretion, which lowers acid damage to the stomach lining.

Tulsi:  Tulsi is an ayurvedic treatment for hyperacidity. It increases mucus production in the stomach and has antiulcer qualities. Chew 5-6 tulsi leaves to relieve your pain.

Mint leaves: Mint soothes the burning sensation in your stomach and decreases acid production. Chop and boil some mint leaves for relief, then drink the cooled fluid.

 

How does ayurveda improve digestive power?

The aggravated Pitta worsens your digestive fire, causing your food to be improperly digested and influencing ama production (toxins). When ama accumulates in your digestive tract, it causes the condition of hyperacidity reflux.

Ayurvedic treatment focuses on relaxing the inflamed Pitta Dosha, which causes acid reflux. Certain ayurvedic herbs are utilized to remove the poisons that clog these channels. This automatically boosts your digestive fire, resulting in better digestion.
