Shankh Churna - #6313
Lately, I've been experiencing a lot of acidity and indigestion. Almost every time I eat, I get heartburn and a bloated feeling that lasts for hours. Over-the-counter antacids aren't helping much. A friend recommended shankh churna as a natural remedy. I've never tried Ayurvedic treatments before, so I'm wondering if shankh churna could be the solution. From what I've gathered, shankh churna is made from conch shell powder and is supposed to help with digestive issues. How effective is shankh churna for treating acidity and indigestion? Also, how should I take shankh churna—before meals or after? Is there a specific dosage I should follow? I'm also curious about any side effects of shankh churna. Since it's made from shells, is there a risk of heavy metals or contaminants? Are there any precautions I need to take while using shankh churna? Additionally, can shankh churna be used alongside other medications? I'm currently taking a multivitamin and occasionally use antacids. Is it safe to combine these with shankh churna? If anyone has personal experience with shankh churna for digestive issues, please share your thoughts. Did it work for you, and how long did it take to see results?
