Acidity, GERD & Heartburn

अम्लपित्त, एसिडिटी व सीने में जलन
Classical Ayurvedic Term: Amlapitta (अम्लपित्त)
bowl Digestive & Abdominal System Mild / Early Stage Dosha: Pitta (Pitta Prakopa)

Excess gastric acid causing burning sensation, reflux, and irritation of the esophagus.

Classical Symptoms & Signs

  • Burning in chest and throat
  • Sour belching
  • Nausea
  • Stomach heaviness

Dosha & Srotas Physiology

This condition stems primarily from an aggravation of Pitta (Pitta Prakopa), affecting the functional channels of the Digestive & Abdominal System.

Traditional Approach: Opposite quality balance (Viparita Chikitsa) — Dosha pacification, metabolic balance, and channel clearing.

✅ Pathya (Recommended Foods & Lifestyle)

Easily digestible warm meals, boiled lukewarm water, green gram (moong dal), seasonal bitter greens, moderate cow ghee, and regular meal timing.

⚠️ Apathya (Foods & Triggers to Avoid)

Excessive chilies and pungent spices, heavy deep-fried items, stale/refrigerated foods, ice-cold water, daytime sleep, and late-night meals.
