Acidity
refers to a set of symptoms caused by an inequity. More names for
acidity are hyperacidity or acid dyspepsia. Acid reflux or Acidity is
one of the most normal diseases that cause heart burns in the upper body
Acidity
can be a result of inappropriate dietary regimen or stress. It is a
problem which when left unattended to, results in peptic ulcer and other
complications. It is quite a simple problem when it begins, but it can
get out of hand easily if not taken critically. It means the excess
secretion of acid by the gastric glands of the stomach.
The usual
signs of heartburn are a burning sensation or pain in the stomach after
one to four hours of a meal. The too much secretion of hydrochloric
acid in the stomach causes acidity. Acidity can be a result of improper
dietary regimen or stress
The too much secretion of hydrochloric
acid in the stomach causes acidity. Some causes of acidity include
Alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, chocolate, citrus, tomato, peppermint,
fried and fatty foods, over-eating, stress, some medications, and being
overweight. Acid Reflux Disease causes harms to the esophagus as the
acidic contents from the stomach, containing acids and pepsin, pushes
back to the esophagus since the sphincter develops into weak and can
no-more prevent the contents from stomach from gushing back in esophagus
Skipping
meals, not eating on time, fried and spicy food, stress, anxiety,
insomnia, obesity, pregnancy, smoking, alcohol, and wearing tight
clothes can give you hyperacidity and heartburn.

Acid Reflux Home Remedies
9:12:00 AM
It is not at all strange to be on the lookout for acid reflux
home remedies. You might even say it is wise, especially during these
times when you need to be practical when it comes to health and wealth.
Home remedies are generally understood to be safer and cheaper. They are
natural and do not contain artificial chemicals which we all know our
body has great difficulty processing. When these chemicals are
inefficiently processed, they end up causing more damage to our internal
organs.
Home remedies are remedies you can do at home and probably even find in your backyard, making them loads cheaper than their commercial counterparts. You don't have to make trips to a pharmacy and worry about travel expenses.
Yet, there are people who argue about the effectiveness of home remedies. To them, nothing beats commercially-prepared and bought antacids in so far as giving immediate relief is concerned. But let's not forget, antacids work like a double-edged sword. As they relieve symptoms of acid reflux, they also cause many side effects and may even eventually result to organ malfunction.
Treating acid reflux at home can be done with the same degree of effectiveness, but better long-term results. Home remedies target not just the symptoms but the cause of the symptoms which make them highly effective in managing acid reflux once and for all.
Acid reflux is not mainly due to overconsumption of acids, although that can trigger an attack. The problem with acid reflux is the weakening of the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (or muscle) that may in fact has many contributing factors, such as smoking and over consumption of fried, fatty, and acidic foods. Eating too much at one time, drinking too much water at one time, and lying down within an hour of eating can make things worse for your already weakened LES.
So what do you do?

So what do you do?
- Avoid the factors that may have brought an attack in the first place. Stay away from smoking, fried and fatty foods, acidic foods, and caffeinated beverages.
- Eat small but do it more frequently.
- Eat slowly. Make time to chew your food. The process of chewing breaks down food into smaller particles for easier digestion.
- Prep your stomach by eating papaya or banana right at the start of your meal. These fruits contain enzymes that aid digestion.
- Take sips of water at the initial symptom of acid reflux.
- Take a tablespoon or two of organic honey to calm your stomach and soothe your esophageal lining.
- Bend your knees at the first symptom of heartburn - it strengthens your LES, helping to keep the stomach contents in the stomach.
- Chew a sugar-free gum after eating to neutralize the acids and enable the production of enzyme-rich saliva.
- Have some nuts for dessert. For some reason, eating nuts immediately after a meal does seem to reduce incidence of heartburn or acid reflux.
- If acid reflux symptoms occur frequently at night, wait for 3-4 hours after eating before lying down, and when lying down, have a pillow or two underneath your head.

Build up of gas is a common problem for everyone. Gas in the GI
tract consists of mainly oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. When
stomach acids mix with pancreatic juices and the bile, carbon dioxide is
produced.

The most important home remedy for gas is garlic soup. Garlic soup not only reduces intestinal gas but also helps to increase digestion. Grind together little garlic with little cumin, black pepper and coriander seeds. Add water, boil and take in two divided doses.
Chooran powders and pills, which are various combinations of common spices improves digestion after having fried foods.
Small pieces of asafetida dissolved in water (half cup) helps to overcome gas trouble. Asafetida is considered as a good carminative and antiflatulent. To one teaspoonful of roasted cumin, add two cups of water and boil for 5-10 minutes till the water quantity reduces to 1 cup. This preparation may be taken once a day to decrease flatulence.
Herbal Home remedy: Decoction of Ajwain, an anti-flatulent herb, may be prepared like cumin decoction. Soak pineapple pieces in the decoction overnight. Squeeze pineapple pieces next day morning in order to extract its essence in to the decoction. After filtering, the decoction may be taken to decrease overproduction of gas.
