Douse the flames

When food enters the stomach, powerful digestive enzymes (including hydrochloric acid) mix with water and start the process of breaking down food into usable form. A mucus lining protects the stomach from experiencing irritation due to these acids.

However, after eating a heavy meal (or foods that have a particularly high acidity level), digestive juices may be forced to work even harder, and may push up into the esophagus. In addition, pregnancy or added weight may push the stomach higher, increasing the likelihood of common acid reflux from digestive juices.

The natural way

There are several ways to improve digestion and harmony in the stomach, throat, and chest and stop problems before they start. Eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day can help to aid digestion. Food selection is crucial – as some foods (such as most condiments, spicy foods and junk foods) can contribute to common burning sensations in the stomach and esophagus. Eating before bedtime can also prove problematic, as gravity is then working against the stomach and may cause common acid reflux.

Maintaining a healthy weight and wearing loose fitting clothes can also help your digestive system to function properly and provide relief. Relaxation is key – activities like yoga and meditation can help to soothe the nerves and support calm digestion.

Natural remedies can also help to support the nervous system and to keep nerves settled and soothed to enable us to digest our foods properly and with little discomfort. In fact, natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the healthy functioning of the stomach, and digestive system in general.
