Indigestion, Heartburn, and Low Stomach Acidity: Main Image
Halt the heat. Stay away from foods that fuel the flames of heartburn and indigestion. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
  • Take simethicone (Mylicon, wind-X) or Pepto-Bismol to help relieve symptoms of indigestion

  • Use charcoal for gas

    Take 388 to 584 mg of activated charcoal within two hours after a wind-forming meal to reduce flatulence.

  • Relax your gut with traditional treatments 

    Try a carminative herbal blend containing peppermint, caraway, and/or fennel to help relax intestinal cramping and relieve wind

  • Try artichoke

    Take an extract providing 500 to 1,000 mg per day cynarin if your indigestion may be due to insufficient bile production by the liver.

  • Get a check-up

    See your doctor to make sure your symptoms are not related to a medical problem.

  • Slow down at the table

    Take time to eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly.

  • Try lactase enzymes

    If your symptoms seem to be brought on by milk products, try taking lactase digestive enzymes before eating those foods.

  • Help digestion with pancreatic enzymes

    Taking enzymes at each meal that provide 30,000 USP units (IU) of lipase and also include protease and amylase enzymes can improve digestion.

  • Check for food sensitivities

    Work with a practitioner knowledgeable about food intolerance to see if certain foods make your symptoms worse.
