BoooBooo : Home Remedy For Acidity
Acidity is the cause of surplus secretion of acid by the gastric glands of the stomach. Our stomach secretes an acid, which is necessary for the digestive process. This acid, in turn, produces various digestive enzymes, like pepsin, which help in the breaking complex food particles into elements that can be easily digested by the body. When there secretion of acid is more than necessary, it results in the feeling of immense heartburn, along with a sensation of inflammation in the throat. This condition has been given the name of acidity. Its other symptoms include formation of ulcers and dyspepsia. Consumption of alcohol, highly spicy food and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID's) also trigger acid formation and result in acidity.

I presume that you are aware that my default remedy for GERD aka Hyperacidity after meals is:
Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after a meal.
This remedy is absolutely safe to be used unlike the PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs that have been discovered to be dangerous in use in the long run and are usually prescribed by doctors as they are not aware of Nat Phos which works by increasing the Peristalsis thereby accelerating the passage of food from the stomach down the gut, thereby stopping the secretion of gastric juice which is the root cause of GERD.
