Acid Reflux

Holistic & Long-Lasting Relief through Ayurveda

Our 3D approach—Detoxification, Diet Plan and Dosha Balancing—helps you get permanent relief from Acid Reflux.

What is Acid Reflux?

Acid Reflux occurs when stomach acid rises into the esophagus (food pipe).
This usually happens after:

  • Eating heavy or large meals
  • Lying down immediately after eating

Occasional Acid Reflux can be managed with home remedies.
But recurrent Acid Reflux, if ignored, can lead to a chronic condition called GERD.

Acid Reflux from an Ayurvedic Perspective

According to Ayurveda, Acid Reflux occurs due to Vata–Pitta imbalance.

  • Normally, Vata dosha moves downward.
  • Due to weak digestive fire (Agni), toxins (Ama) accumulate in the digestive tract.
  • This blocks the natural flow of Vata.
  • Vata then moves upward, pushing stomach acid (Pitta) into the esophagus.
  • This irritates and inflames the food pipe, causing discomfort, burning, and reflux.

Causes of Acid Reflux? (Ayurvedic View)

Factors that aggravate Pitta dosha and increase Acid Reflux include:
  • Consuming hot, spicy, oily, or sour foods
  • Overeating or irregular meal timings
  • Excessive stress and anger
  • Alcohol and caffeine consumption
  • Smoking
  • Obesity
  • Certain medications (painkillers, BP medicines, hormone therapy)

Symptoms of Acid Reflux?

Common signs and symptoms include

  • Chest pain unrelated to the heart
  • Burning in chest & throat (after meals or lying down)
  • Regurgitation (acid or food coming back up)
  • Sour taste in the mouth
  • Nausea or vomiting sensation
  • Dry cough, wheezing, shortness of breath

1. Esophagitis

Inflammation of the esophagus lining, leading to pain and ulcer formation.

2. Barrett’s Esophagus

Long-term acid exposure changes the esophageal lining—risk factor for cancer.

3. Esophageal Stricture

Scar tissue forms, narrowing the food pipe and causing difficulty swallowing.
