of life. Prepare a tea by boiling licorice root
in water for a few minutes. Consume it at least

5. Buttermilk
A safe diet is always better to prevent hernial
symptoms from getting complicated. Buttermilk is
considered a safe option for people with hiatal
hernia as it is rich in probiotics that help
reduce acids in the stomach. Other foods good for
hernia are unsweetened yoghurt, whole grains,
lean proteins, fruits and leafy greens. Caution,
if you are allergic to buttermilk, avoid it.

Piperine in black pepper has anti-inflammatory
property. It is widely used in treating

some of its symptoms and speed up the healing
process.

7. Water
A hiatal hernia can worsen the acid reflux in the
stomach and cause GERD. A study found that
frequent sipping of water helps in the management
of acid reflux. It clears the acids of the
oesophagus by diluting them and helps manage
symptoms to some extent. Sip water at every half
an hour. Avoid drinking too much at a time as it
may cause an adverse reaction.
8. Vegetable Juice
Vegetable juice has multiple health benefits due
to the presence of vitamins, minerals and
antioxidants. For hernia, juice made especially
of broccoli, carrots, kale, ginger and spinach
are considered beneficial. Vegetable juice also
has anti-inflammatory properties. Altogether,
these veggies help to inhibit the hernia
symptoms.
