Acid reflux, or amlapitta in Ayurveda, occurs when aggravated Pitta dosha disturbs digestion. Here are three time-tested, natural approaches to find relief.
1. Cooling herbs & churna
Herbs like Amla, Mulethi (licorice) and Sitopaladi churna help neutralise excess acid and soothe the stomach lining.
2. Mindful eating
Eat at regular times, avoid overly spicy and fried foods, and never lie down immediately after meals.
3. Hydration & herbal teas
Sip cool water and herbal teas through the day. Coriander or fennel water is especially calming for the digestive fire.
For persistent symptoms, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any remedy.
