HOMOEOPATHY FOR ACIDITY
Acidity refers to a set of symptoms caused by an imbalance
between the acid secreting mechanism of the stomach and proximal intestine and
the protective mechanisms that ensure their safety. The stomach normally
secretes acid that is essential in the digestive process. This acid helps in
breaking down the food during digestion. When there is excess production of
acid by the gastric glands of the stomach, it results in the condition known as
acidity. However, there are certain types of ulcers where acid secretion is
either normal or even low. Acidity is responsible for symptoms like dyspepsia,
heartburn and the formation of ulcers (erosion of the lining of the stomach or
intestines). Acidity tends to have a much higher incidence in highly emotional
and nervous individuals. It is also more common in the developed and
industrialised nations, though a recent increase in incidence has also occurred
in the developing countries. Consumption of Alcohol, highly spicy foodstuffs,
non-vegetarian diets, and Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID's) also
predispose to gastric acidity.
