Try eating 4 to 5 smaller meals during the day, instead of eating 2 to 3 large
meals. These small meals can be a khichdi like Wholesome Khichdi or Date and Banana
Shake. Combinations like these will satiate you and at the same time will provide
you with good nourishment. |
|
2. | Eat your evening
meal at least an hour or two before you go to bed. |
| 3. |
Try and stay upright after you have eaten, take a small walk or prop yourself
up with pillows for a while. This prevents the reversal of food from the stomach
with additional digestive acids that result in heartburn. |
| 4. |
Eating your meals in a calm, pleasant and serene atmosphere helps.
|
| 5.
|
Avoid spicy and oily foods as these will tend to make you feel uncomfortable.
|
| 6.
|
Drink more water (at least 6 to 8 glasses in a day) and increase the intake of
fruit juices, soups and milk shakes. Consume at least 2 liters of fluid everyday.
[Try out Guava Drink or Golden Broth or Orange Yoghurt Milk Shake].
|
| 7.
|
Have 3 to 4 glasses of buttermilk everyday if you can handle it as it is God's
nectar for acidity. You can even have fruity variations like My Fair Lady and
Strawberry Yoghurt Shake. |
|
8. |
For some, acidity arises because of citrus fruits or their juices. If this occurs
with you, avoid that fruit. Stay on non-acidic fruits like melons, bananas, chickoos
etc. |
