Our lifestyle and food habits are the dominant factors of our health and keep issues like chronic Indigestion and acidity at bay. Things get aggravated, and we start to pop antacids to get relief. Chronic Indigestion or dyspepsia is discomfort caused in the upper abdomen. It happens during or immediately after eating. Indigestion, or a sour stomach, can occur frequently and produce pain or a burning sensation in the belly area.
The efficiency of digestion is determined by the power of the digestive fire or “Agni” , according to Ayurveda. If the Agni gets disrupted, it causes problems with bloating, burping, and gas, an acidic taste in the mouth, or one may even experience a gurgling sound in the stomach.
Dr. Era Ayurveda adopts a comprehensive approach and helps identify and address the underlying reasons for your problems. The team of doctors tries to find the root cause and determine the doshas ‘ underlying causes and imbalances. Dr. Era and her team then prescribe medicines and treatment to improve your dosha.
What Are Ayurvedic Medicine For Chronic Indigestion?
Changing some lifestyle habits, such as avoiding exercise after a meal, chewing food properly, and sleeping at the right time, can help to reduce Indigestion. Psychological causes like fear, anger, stress, etc., and alcohol can also cause Indigestion. Ayurvedic medicines help to minimize Pitta activity. Instead of spicy, sour, fermented, fried food, a healthy and nutritious diet filled with fresh fruits and vegetables may curb the digestive Igni and relieve the stomach from acidity.
