Indigestion may be a symptom of a problem with the stomach, small intestine or large intestine, or it may be a disease in itself. Symptoms include flatulence, abdominal pain, heartburn, spacing, nausea, vomiting, and a burning sensation after eating. Food allergies may be the cause, and chronic stomach problems, stressful life, emotional stress, and lack of digestive enzymes may all cause digestive problems. If you eat while talking, gobble, eat while drinking soup is very easy to cause indigestion. Sugary foods contain bacteria and are a major source of gas. You need to identify the foods you can’t digest and avoid them.
Home treatment measures
1. Test stomach acid
Lack of stomach acid is a direct cause of indigestion, and you can do a stomach acid self-test. Take a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. If this makes the heartburn go away, then you need more hydrochloric acid. If doing so makes the symptoms worse, you have too much hydrochloric acid and should not take any more enzymes containing hydrochloric acid.
2. Maintain a balanced diet
Maintain a balanced diet rich in fiber, such as fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains. Chew slowly instead of gulping.
3. Foods to avoid
Avoid refined sugars, bread, cakes, macaroni, dairy products, caffeine, orange fruits, tomatoes, green peppers, carbonated beverages, potato chips, junk food, fried food, spicy food, red meat, beans, and coke. Reduce the intake of salt. Processed foods, junk food and all dairy products stimulate excessive mucosal secretion and lead to protein indigestion. Moderate the amount of peanuts, lentils and soybeans. They contain an enzyme inhibitor.
4.Pay attention to the combination of food
Protein and starch, vegetables and fruits are not a beneficial combination. Milk is best not used with three meals, and sugar combined with protein or starch is not good for digestion.
5.Coping with gas and intestinal distension
Pancreatic enzymes can be used for flatulence in the upper part of the digestive system, while trace minerals can be used for flatulence in the lower part of the digestive system. Acidulants are not effective for gas and flatulence. When too much gas is produced, use a fresh lemon squeezed into juice with about 1.14 liters of warm water as an enema to balance the pH level in the body. If the gas persists for several days, use Lactobacillus bifidus enema, which will relieve the problem within a few hours.
6.Take acidophilus
Indigestion can also be improved with acidophilus, as the lack of these good bacteria is the most common factor of indigestion. Open 10 capsules to take, or use the powdered formula in tablespoons. For those allergic to dairy crystals, switch to a cow’s milk free product. Acidophilus is also quite a safe enema, with few problems. You may feel slight discomfort, but it subsides after about an hour.
7.Acidic beverage for eyes
Use a tablespoon of pure apple cider vinegar with a glass of water and sip it at mealtime to help digestion. Drink a glass of lemon water first in the morning, it has the effect of healing and clearing the blood.
8.Take charcoal
Charcoal tablets are effective in absorbing gas in the body, but it can interfere with medicines and nutrients. Do not take it for a long time.

Rice soup and barley porridge are effective for flatulence, gas and heartburn. Use 5 parts of water plus one part of grain (rice or barley) and boil for 10 minutes. Cover the pot and simmer for 50 minutes. Strain, cool, and drink several times a day.
