Hello User,

Acidity is a common digestion related problem that is faced by many people nowadays because of the sedentary lifestyle and wrong choices of food. Intake of a high fatty diet, oily, and spicy foods results in improper digestion which ultimately leads to digestive issues like acidity, burping, etc.
Along with a correct diet, the adoption of a correct lifestyle is equally important. 

Diet

  • Start the day with 3 to 4 glasses of warm water on an empty stomach. This will help to flush the toxins out of the body. 
  • Drink green tea twice a day, one in the morning on an empty stomach and the other at night before sleeping. 
  • Eat sprouts in your breakfast as they are light in nature and are rich in nutrients also.
  • Drink freshly prepared homemade fruit juices. 
  • Have fresh, seasonal, and locally available fruits and vegetables. 
  • Don't use refined oils for cooking. Instead, use cold-pressed oil for cooking.
  • Have Vitamin C rich diet like include lemon, oranges, amla, blueberries, etc in your diet.
  • Drink plenty of water throughout the day. 

Exercise 

Physical activities are also essential for good digestion as it improves the blood circulation in the body and also the metabolism of the body. 

  • Start the day with a brisk morning walk of at least 30min. 
  • Do plank for 5min. 
  • Perform yoga asanas like bhujanga asana, trikona asana, paschimottan asana and padahasta asana. 
  • Do pranayam regularly for 15-20min, specially anulom-vilom and bhastrika pranayam. 

Sleep

Good quality of sleep is also needed for good metabolism. Sometimes lack of sleep or bad quality sleep also leads to digestive issues like acidity, anorexia, etc. So, proper sleep is required. 

Take proper sleep of at least 7-8hours daily. Sleep early at night and also wake up early in the morning. 

Avoid using electronic gadgets like mobiles, tv, computers, laptops, etc at least 1hour before sleeping for an improved quality of sleep. 

Thank you
