Home Remedy Acid Indigestion

Are you looking for a home remedy for acid indigestion? If you’re sick of popping pills for your heartburn, you’re not alone. Over the counter heartburn medication is only meant to be taken over the course of two weeks, and not necessarily on a permanent basis, did you know that? Anyway, who wants to be dependent on pills for the rest of their lives?

There are a number of home remedies you can try to relieve your heartburn. Most are fairly simplistic and don’t even require a trip to the drug store.

Relief

If you already have heartburn, here are a few things you can try to get rid of it:

  • Try drinking a full glass of water. Although this might seem way to easy to be effective, it does work for some people. It helps to flush out the stomach and dilute acids that might be causing pain.
  • Along those same lines, try adding a tablespoon or two of apple cider vinegar to your water. That will help neutralize acids and bring you pain relief quickly.
  • Ginger is also known to help with heartburn, among other stomach ailments. You can take it in tea or candied form and find the same relief for your acid indigestion.
  • Papaya is shown to have a digestive enzyme that helps your body break down food, and can reduce acid indigestion significantly. The tablets are small and can be chewed before or after meals to help with heartburn.

Prevention

If you suffer from frequent acid indigestion, you may be hoping for a more long term solution than just drinking an extra glass of water once heartburn sets in. To help prevent future outbreaks of acid indigestion, try a few of these techniques:

  • Stay away from certain foods. Many people react poorly to certain types of food with regard to acid indigestion. Things like caffeine, alcohol, onions, garlic and citrus are all common food triggers for heartburn. You may have your own triggers, which is why it’s important to track what you eat and when, so that you can understand what upsets your stomach the most and try to moderate your consumption of that item.
  • You can also scale back the amount of food you eat in each sitting. That way you help your body to digest foods more easily, as opposed to consuming a huge amount of food and then dealing with the overproduction of stomach acid (and the subsequent heartburn) as your body attempts to break all that food down.
  • Don’t eat right before you lie down. It may be a routine of yours to take a nap right after dinner, or have a midnight snack, but if you suffer from frequent heartburn you may want to break these habits. See, while you’re up and about, gravity helps keep food and stomach acids down where they belong. But, if you eat right before you lie down, those acids are allowed to creep up into your esophagus and can cause pain and damage. Avoid this by eating at least two hours before you lay down. If circumstances don’t make that possible, prop an extra pillow under your head to keep your esophagus aligned above your stomach.

There are a countless number of ways to approach home remedy for acid indigestion. For more holistic ways to relieve heartburn, check out The Reflux Remedy Report.

Home Remedy For Acid Reflux

Finding a home remedy for acid reflux is a trial and error process simply because everyone is different.

Beyond our personal differences there is an underlying uniformity, what leading scientists call ‘intelligent design’. Understanding how your body really thrives is the key to healing anything, especially acid reflux.

A home remedy for acid reflux will work better for one person and perhaps not at all for another because of several factors. Some people need remedies for a bundle of health problems including allergies and food sensitivities, not just acid reflux.

Sometimes the remedy is to discover what you are being exposed to in your home environment in regards to food, water and the air you breathe.

As you already know one of the main triggers of acid reflux is from eating the wrong foods. There is a very good reason these “wrong foods” can cause acid reflux . . . because they’re simply bad for you.

Often the best home remedy for acid reflux is to eliminate whatever is triggering your heart burn and gastric indigestion.

It’s not only the type of foods you eat at home, but what’s inside or on the food, including pesticides and herbicides, not to mention bacteria from foods processed with reclaimed sewer water.

Another hidden danger lurking in the homes of Americans that can contribute to your digestive health being compromised is Genetically Manufactured Organisms, or commonly called GMO foods.

Anything in that lowers your cellular energy levels will eventually upset your digestive system, which can become a hidden factor when looking for a home remedy for acid reflux, heart burn and acid indigestion.

At first glance you may think that there couldn’t be a connection between these things and your acid reflux. Yet the truth remains true . . . conventional medicine still doesn’t have a cure for your acid reflux disease, acid rebound or gastric esophageal reflux disease (GERD).

That’s why you’re looking for a home remedy in the first place, isn’t it?

Drinking a glass of milk is a home remedy for some people suffering from acid reflux, but for others the animal fat, indigestible protein, antibiotics, growth hormones, and lactose sugars can trigger acid reflux.

Drinking natural mineral water an hour between meals can help remedy acid reflux, but if you drink water, or any beverage, with your meals your digestive acids become even more diluted and can trigger acid indigestion as well.

So keep hunting for the real cause of your acid reflux . . . eliminating the cause is your best home remedy.

What is Acid Reflux

Good question, ?What IS Acid Reflux?? You?ve heard it called heartburn, acid indigestion or maybe even esophagitis and gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Whatever you want to call it, it is one of the most unpleasant experiences you could have short of vomiting.

If you noticed, it starts with something harmless enough sounding, like ?heartburn.? Then suddenly it?s involving indigestion and then medical sounding conditions that have something to do with your esophagus, or throat.

What happens is heartburn usually progresses until it becomes a disease and then eventually even leads to throat cancer. Sounds fun doesn?t it? NOT.

Heartburn feels like a burning near your heart because that?s where your Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) is, right behind the top part of your heart. This is where acid reflux takes place at.

Your stomach acid is the culprit here. You either have too much or too little. It may surprise you to learn that most people suffer from too little stomach acid. The stomach acid reflux is a chemical biological eruption that forces the acid passed your LES, which is designed to seal off your stomach contents from entering your throat area.

There are things that can make it easy for your acid to reflux up beyond your LES. One is eating too much. As undigested food piles up, the acid in your stomach has nowhere to go but up. Acid reflux happens when food pushes on your LES causing it to open. Your stomach acid is pooling on top of your food trying to chemically dissolve it. This is a very caustic situation.

Did you know your stomach acid is so corrosive it can eat glass?

Another way acid can reflux up your throat is from lying down after a meal, this distorts your rib cage and diaphragm muscle, pressing undigested food against the LES making it open. The natural result is corrosive digestive juices leaking up where they do not belong, in your throat, lungs, mouth and sinuses.

If you lack stomach acid it is not unusual for you to feel bloated because your food is not moving or being chemically dissolved by your stomach acid. Imagine a zip-lock baggie filled with mash potatoes and soda pop. Picture the mashed potatoes fill 9/10ths of the bag leaving only one place for the soda pop to go . . .up.

Your stomach acid is like that, in fact, your stomach acid is made by cells in your stomach lining located at the top of your stomach. So it?s easy to see, whether you have a lot of stomach acid, or just a little, it?s going to be near the top next to your throat.

Once the LES has been breached it weakens your throat muscles, making it more likely to happen again. If it is allowed to continue this simple case of heart burn and acid reflux will eventually destroy throat tissue leading to GERD or throat cancer. That?s why if you take any drugs for acid reflux, use them wisely and ONLY for a very short period of time, because the cause of the acid reflux will be there until you find the natural treatment to help your body cure itself by removing the real cause of the problem.

Treatment of Acid Reflux

According to current U.S. laws that the American Medical Association (AMA) have lobbied to establish in America, it?s illegal for anyone to sell you any natural treatment or cure. Not that in any way it is bad for someone to provide you with a natural treatment or cure for your acid reflux, but because the AMA just doesn?t tolerate any competition.

Natural treatments and cures for acid reflux, heartburn and acid indigestion have been passed down to The American people for thousands of years, it?s part of our inherited culture of family values, which includes grandma?s acid reflux treatment.

Since when has big business become our master? I don?t know about you, but I find this current situation very upsetting. The treatments for acid reflux that are allowed by the AMA are limited to only drug treatments . . . that?s all.

If you suffer from acid reflux you already know these chemical products or drugs, so authoritively sponsored by the AMA, do NOT cure acid reflux. Truth is Proton-pump inhibitor drugs cause a new dis-ease called acid rebound disease. Acid rebound is a side effect of addictive proton-pump inhibitors that mess your body up, making your acid reflux symptoms many times worse, often leading to gastro-esophageal reflux dis-ease (GERD) or worse.

Don?t just take my word for it. Decide right now to investigate everything yourself, do your ?due diligence? and you will see, the truth is sometimes a scary thing but . . . never as bad as living with the lies.

Conventional Western medical treatments for acid reflux symptoms block the symptoms, but that is NOT a cure. The root cause of your acid reflux needs to be treated naturally, or your acid reflux symptoms will get worse.

Before you settle for any medical treatments for acid reflux, first try natural scientific treatments based on thousands of years of evidence and naturally happy, healthy people.

Western medicine is a front for making profits for share holders off sick and suffering people. The whole idea of Western and Eastern medicine is a myth. It?s just the new way corporations compete and brand their products on a global market, at your expense.

Food is medicine and medicine is food, whether you are North, South, East or West.

By forbidding any other ?alternative? treatments form ancient cultures like Ayurvedic, Chinese acupuncture and Amerindian, Western medicine has limited your choices.

Since when can a vender of a product limit your choices? Isn?t that called a monopoly?

Last I checked, tyranny was still illegal in America.

Medical treatments for acid reflux that don?t involve lifestyle and dietary changes are useless. In fact, just making lifestyle modifications yourself could be the best treatment for acid reflux of all.

Great men learn by observing nature and no one should be able to stop you from doing that. Observe nature and you?ll find the best natural treatment for your acid reflux, in fact the right natural treatment, combined with diet and lifestyle changes will cure you of your acid reflux symptoms, simply because you eliminated the root cause of acid reflux. Western medical treatment is primarily concerned with chemically treating your symptoms, not removing the cause of your acid reflux.

I hope you can see the difference between natural and unnatural treatment for acid reflux better now.
