About Acid Reflux/GERD
  • Acid Reflux is a condition in which the liquid
    content of the stomach regurgitates (backs up or
    refluxes) into the esophagus.
  • If you have heartburn that occurs more than twice
    a week and/or does not get better with
    over-the-counter antacids, you may have GERD.

3
Causes
  • Consumption of pitta (fire) aggravating foods and
    foods of incompatible nature (virudh aahar)
    vitiates all the doshas, predominantly pitta
    dosha.
  • Vitiated doshas produce heating toxins that are
    expelled upwards into the food pipe causing
    heartburn.

4
  • Increased intake of tea or coffee, or oily,
    spicy, or fried foods aggravates pitta and leads
    to acidity.
  • An aggressive nature and hyperactivity are also
    causative factors.
  • Pitta is aggravated by late night work schedules,
    irregular eating patterns, and/or drinking
    alcoholic and carbonated beverages.
  • Increased intake of painkillers and antibiotics
    also cause acidity and heartburn.

5
Symptoms
  • Chest pain
  • Heartburn
  • Pain while swallowing food

6
Home Remedies
  • Make a powdered mixture of equal parts of rock
    candy (mishri), fennel, and green cardamom.
  • Whenever you experience heartburn, mix 1 teaspoon
    of the mixture in a glass of cold milk and drink.

7
  • Mix together equal parts of powdered fennel,
    licorice root, basil leaves, and coriander seeds.
    Have ½ teaspoon of this mixture with ½ teaspoon
    of powdered rock candy (mishri) 15 minutes before
    lunch and dinner.
