For those suffering from Acidity, I will advice them to take Dinner early and give atleast 2 Hours gap before going to Bed. Also Light Dinner is advisable. Also raise the Head of your bed by about 3 Inches, so that refluxes are controlled. "Gastroesophageal reflux disease results when the lower esophageal sphincter—the muscle that acts as a valve between the esophagus and stomach—becomes weak or relaxes when it should not, causing stomach contents to rise up into the esophagus." more

One very important point is to chew each bite of food nicely before swallowing. Drink a glass of water an hour before partaking food and avoid drinking water with meals or upto one hour after meals. Raja Sahib had advised that swallowing 8/10 grains of raw rice with some water on empty stomach will prevent acidity. It is said what tastes for the tongue and palate is not good for the stomach ! Avoid what the tongue demands .... fried, roasted, salty, oily, sweet, packed, processed and all such! Inspite of all controls if acidity persists, try alternative medicines from Homeopathy, Ayurveda or any other system employing natural methods and products instead of chemical based medicines. more
