20 Home Remedies For Indigestion

Indigestion is not an uncommon phenomenon, as every person is subjected to it at one point in their lives. This uncomfortable physical state causes numerous symptoms and discomfort. Some of these symptoms can be debilitating.

Medical author John P. Cunha from eMedicineHealth lists these symptoms as abdominal pain, bloating, excessive flatulence or burping, nausea (with or without vomiting), stomach pains, or a rumbling, grumbling stomach, diarrhea or constipation and a decreased appetite.

The actual cause of indigestion can come from multiple sources and is usually related to a functional problem of the gastrointestinal tract. This means that there is difficulty in processing food or stomach acids. Diseases, medications, and lifestyle are some of the causes. If suffering from these symptoms, you might be tempted to use medicine to deal with the pain and discomfort. However, it is recommended rather than going using natural methods first, and only resorting to medication if the condition is not alleviated by home remedies.

Here are 20 home remedies for indigestion worth a try.

1. Have A Cup of Tea

There is a great variety of quality teas available to assist in calming one’s stomach, as well as relieving digestive disorders and restoring the normal functioning of the bowels. Chamomile tea is an excellent example of such tea. This is an age-old treatment for digestive problems.

It both calms the stomach and soothes spasms in the intestines. It is suggested taking half a teaspoon chamomile tincture thrice daily or sipping on chamomile tea throughout the day.

Another great tea option is ginger tea. An article on Medical News Today highlights how this tea is known to be a natural stomach soother. This invigorating refresher also reduces the production of stomach acid. It is recommended to drink a caffeine-free variety of this tea, using some honey as a sweetener. Many local health stores have an array of teas and the benefits of these teas are often listed on the boxes.
