Severe acidity
Hi doc, I have severe acidity problem. Every 3 days I have to have acidity tablet like raza-d. Less powerful tablets don't have effect anymore. Please note I am extremely health conscious guy so don't have food which are acidic like oily food or rich food. But then also I face this problem. I had visited a doctor ILS previously but those meds didn't help. Can you please advise how to permanently cure this problem.

Hello,, 1.Refined Food – Refined food like white bread, refined sugar is difficult to digest and leads to increased irritation on the stomach lining. Thus, food like pastries, burgers etc should be avoided. 2.Fat – Gastritis is basically the inflammation of the stomach lining, which is enhanced due to fatty acids. Sources of fatty acids are fried chicken, fried onions, fried eggs etc. Boiled eggs are safe but fried eggs are a great source of fatty acids, which increases the stomach lining inflammation. 3.Spicy Food – Spicy food needless to say increases inflammation in the stomach. Spicy food may include direct intake of chillies, intake of high amount of spice everyday, mustard etc. Here is what to eat - eat fresh fruits and vegetables which has high fibre helps both gastritis and digestion problem. There is no restrictions to drinking water,, drink as much as water. Avoid lemon juice during acute attack or gastritis, Eating curd rice soothens gastritis. Continue your antigastrits medications.
