Acidity remedy in Yoga

The best and easy yoga asana for acidity would be vajrasana. This asana helps to improve digestion, decrease constipation, reduce flatulence or gas and acidity. For this sit on the floor with your legs erect in front of you. Now slowly fold one leg at a time at the knee supporting your weight on the palm and put it under your buttock. Similarly fold the other leg and put it under the buttock. The toes should point towards the ground and there should be enough space between your heels to place your buttock. Place your hands in cupped position under the abdomen. Relax in this position 10 minutes after eating any meals.

If you suffer form acidity take care of the food which you eat as food has a major influence on acidity. Keep the following points in mind for the same –

  • Have small divided meals; avoid having a heavy fatty meal especially in dinner to avoid acidity.
  • Avoid fatty oily foods, junk foods, coffee, tea (don't drink tea or coffee alone, always have a piece of cracker or toast along with it), caffeinated drinks, chocolates, and sodas.
  • Avoid clubbing fruits with your major meals.
  • Do not lie down immediately after a meal; keep at least a minimum gap of 2-3 hours.
