Here are two Ayurvedic remedies that can help alleviate acidity, gas, and acid reflux
Chew Raw Cumin Seeds (Jeera)
Before meals, chew on a small amount of raw cumin seeds and then drink some lukewarm water. This can help in relieving acidity symptoms.
Cold Milk with Rose Petal Preserve (Gulkand)
Take a small quantity of cold milk and mix it with half a teaspoon of rose petal preserve (gulkand). Consuming this mixture may help alleviate acidity without the need for medication.
It’s important to note that taking antacids on an empty stomach in the morning can be harmful to health. Over-the-counter antacids being sold in the market often contain sodium carbonate, which can deplete essential nutrients in the body. If symptoms persist even after trying these remedies or if there is difficulty in breathing, chest pain, or discomfort in the jaw or arm, it’s crucial to seek medical attention immediately as these could be signs of a heart attack.
