How to Get Rid of Acidity

Stomach acid isn't a bad thing as long as there isn't too much. A lot of times when your stomach hurts, it's because there isn't enough acid in your stomach to help digest all the food you've eaten . Eating spicy foods, lack of exercise, irregular eating habits, stress, or drinking alcohol frequently can lead to acidity problems.

1
Drink lots of water, it's always good for you and helps with digestion



2
Look into taking digestive enzymes
Usually they are papaya and or pineapple & Banana .They contain Papain and Bromelin which are natural enzymes that help the stomach digest food.


Try cutting out acid inducing foods like caffeine (how many cups of coffee do you have a day?), tomatoes, alcohol, high fat foods, spicy foods. See if this makes a difference.

4. Relax. Look at your stress level. Stress can cause stomach acidity issues as well as other health problems. Start exercising or meditating.

If you frequently suffer from acidity, drink a glass of lukewarm water every day before going to sleep and immediately after waking up in the morning. Do not drink water during or immediately after a meal, though as it can lead to improper digestion that can contribute to acidity.

Keep gelusil with you .
