ACIDITY AYURVEDIC TREATMENT
Acidity is related to heartburn and gas formation
in stomach. In acidity, acid reflux or Gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD),
or more commonly known as ‘Urdhvag Amalpitta’ in ayurveda, there is a movement
of gastric juices ( acid in nature) from the stomach into the lower part of
esophagus.
Ayurveda considers it to be caused by the
aggravation of Pitta dosha. When Kapha is associated with this aggravated
Pitta, the Acid starts climbing the oesophagus. This is exactly the
hyperacidity for most of us and is translated widely as- Heartburn, Acid
Reflux, Acid Brash etc.
