FAQ's For Acid Indigestion

 

Some common signs of acid reflux are:
Heartburn
Painful indigestion
Bitter or sour taste in the mouth
Dry cough
Asthma
Pain while swallowing

OTC antacids containing calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, aluminium, and magnesium hydroxide are helpful in providing relief.

Hydrochloric acid is present in the stomach and is used to digest food and protect against pathogens. Though the stomach lining protects from the acid’s corrosive nature, the oesophagus does not possess such protection. Acid indigestion is caused by hydrochloric acid build-up in the stomach, and a malfunction of the gastroesophageal valve, causing acid to move up the oesophagus.

GERD is a lifestyle disease. Hence, it is important to make significant lifestyle changes in order to prevent serious long-term complications. Some basic lifestyle changes include the following:
Avoid trigger foods like oily, spicy, salty, or acidic items
Manage BMI, and make sure to have a healthy weight
Quit smoking, as it increases the risk and exacerbates symptoms
Avoid late night eating
Reduce alcohol intake
Elevate the bed so that there is a slight upward incline from the pelvis to the head

Heartburn is a tell-tale symptom of acid indigestion. However, the two terms are often used interchangeably.

        
Acid indigestion, also known as acid reflux, heartburn, or pyrosis, is a condition which causes pain or a burning sensation in the lower chest region due to acids from the stomach travelling back up the oesophagus. It is medically known as GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease) when it occurs at least twice a week. Some common symptoms of GERD include:
Heartburn
Painful indigestion
Bitter or sour taste in the mouth
Dry cough
Asthma
Recurring pneumonia
Nausea and vomiting
Dental erosion
Throat issues like laryngitis, hoarseness, or soreness
Pain while swallowing
Bad breath

Though the stomach lining protects from the acid’s corrosive nature, the oesophagus does not possess such protection. Acid indigestion is caused by hydrochloric acid build-up in the stomach, and a malfunction of the gastroesophageal valve, causing acid to move up the oesophagus.
Acid reflux is often linked to dietary habits. Some foods that cause acid indigestion include:
Alcohol
Caffeine (Coffee, tea, aerated beverages, etc)
High table salt intake
Low-fiber diet
Chocolate
Acidic juices

Eating big meals and lying down within 2-3 hours of having a meal cause acid reflux. Other common risk factors include:
Obesity
Smoking
Excessive alcohol consumption
Sedentary lifestyle
Medications such as antihistamines, sedatives, antidepressants, calcium-channel blockers, painkillers and asthma drugs

Acid indigestion relief comes in the form of indigestion treatment drugs such as:
• OTC antacids containing calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, aluminium, and magnesium hydroxide
• PPIs (Proton pump inhibitors) like rabeprazole, omeprazole and esomeprazole
• H2 blockers like cimetidine and famotidine
• Alginate drugs like Gaviscon

Some natural acid reflux remedies include acid neutralizers like:
Probiotics
Apple cider vinegar
Aloe vera
Bananas
Baking soda
