Hyperactivity and Ayurveda Hyperacidity simply means an increased level of acid in the stomach. The stomach secretes Hydrochloric Acid, a digestive juice that breaks down food particles into their smallest form to aid digestion. When there is an excessive amount of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, the condition is known as Hyperacidity. Acidity treatment in Ayurveda is very effective, particularly in cases where the patient approaches sooner instead of popping pills to subdue symptoms. Even in advanced cases, with proper medicines, and by following prescribed diet and lifestyle recommendations, Acidity treatment provides very high relief. Ayurvedic Treatment Hyperacidity is known as Amlapitta in Ayurveda. Hyperacidity therefore is a condition characterized by an increase of sourness and heat in the body. The aggravated Pitta impairs the digestive fire, leading to improper digestion of food and production of ama (toxins). This ama gets accumulated in the digestive channels and causes Hyperacidity. Acidity treatment in Ayurveda is focused on pacifying the aggravated Pitta Dosha. Cleansing herbs are also administered to eliminate toxins from the body and cleanse the intestines. This automatically enhances the digestive fire, leading to better digestion. Akshay Arogyam Dr. akshay-9960779777 www.akshayarogyam.com
