Manage your health

Quick tips to manage your health :

  1. Avoid Trigger Foods: Steer clear of spicy, fatty, or acidic foods like citrus, tomatoes, and chocolate.

  2. Eat Smaller, Frequent Meals: Instead of large meals, have smaller meals more frequently to prevent excess stomach acid production.

  3. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help dilute stomach acid.

  4. Avoid Lying Down After Eating: Wait at least 2-3 hours after eating before lying down to prevent acid from flowing back into the esophagus.

  5. Elevate Your Head While Sleeping: Use an extra pillow or elevate the head of your bed to keep acid in your stomach during sleep.

  6. Chew Gum: Chewing sugar-free gum can increase saliva production, which helps neutralize stomach acid.

  7. Wear Loose Clothing: Tight clothes can squeeze your stomach and push acid up into your esophagus.

  8. Maintain a Healthy Weight: Excess weight can put pressure on your abdomen, causing acid reflux.

  9. Quit Smoking: Smoking can weaken the lower esophageal sphincter, leading to heartburn and acid reflux.

  10. Manage Stress: Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga to reduce stress-related acid reflux.
