I'm really struggling with acid reflux — how can ayurveda help me manage it better? - #22234
I am having the worst time with this acid reflux thing. It started a few months ago, and honestly it’s been such a pain. Like, I’d eat my dinner and not long after I’d feel like a volcano was erupting in my chest! It’s so bad that I’ve tried those over-the-counter medicines, but they only give me a little relief for a short time. My friend mentioned using ayurveda for acid reflux, but I don’t really know much about it. She said something about diet changes and herbal remedies in ayurveda that could help manage it. I am kinda skeptical, because I thought this was just something I’d have to deal with! But I've read that ayurveda acid reflux treatments could help ease things. I tried cutting out tomatoes and spicy food, since they seemed to trigger it, ya know? But sometimes, I just miss my favorite meals. I've also heard ginger tea can be helpful too? I'm scared to try too many things at once and make it worse, though! Can anyone tell me exactly what ayurveda suggests for acid reflux? Like, what should I eat or what things to avoid? Any specific herbs I should know about? I just really want to feel comfy again and not have to think about food making my insides all angry. Thanks for any tips you can give me!
