Effective Natural Home Remedies for Hyperacidity

Hyperacidity is also known as acid indigestion, acid reflux, and acid dyspepsia. This disease can be explained so: our stomach contains gastric glands that produce gastric acid. This acid is vital for digestion because it breaks down the food in small pieces so that to be easily digested. If the amount of acid is very large we can talk about hyperacidity (acidity) or heartburn. Hyperacidity irritates the esophagus lining and as a consequence we experience pain in chest or in the low part of our stomach. 

The symptoms of hyperacidity are various. The person who suffers a hyperacidity attack can experience very unpleasant and painful conditions: from nausea, restless, loss of appetite, abdominal pain to difficulty swallowing, flatulence, and sour taste in his mouth. 

The main causes of this digestive problem are: stressful life, irregular meals, an unhealthy diet, the consumption of large amounts of tea, alcohol, coffee, too spicy food. Some medicines can lead to hyperacidity, too.
