Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 A little more water intake, alkaline water if you can find a filter that will give you this, and lemon balm is good for digestive upsets - made into a tea - all of these will help.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Yes, there must certainly be acid due to lack of movement even. Is there a possibility of sitting and doing breathing and mild movement? warm milk with honey and fennel may help warm milk with brahmi applying rose oil to the chest and under the rib cage applying rose oil in castor oil to the feet with foot massage flipendula ulmaria is a good western herb http://www.purplesage.org.uk/profiles/meadowsweet.htm be careful as this person must be on many medications ___________________ Is there any suggestion of herbs that can help with an acid stomach,acid reflux,and to stimulate appetite?

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Dear Mathew, How are you doing ? For acidic stomach, and acid reflux. Try and find out a root cause for it first. Ask yourself the following questions : a) Do you eat junk food ? Or eat foods which can raise your pH to acidic. b) Do you eat at odd hours ? c) Are you stressed out ? d) Do you have constipation ? e) Are you eating foods containing less fibre which leads to constipation ? f) Also try and find out your Dosha ? Go to : http://www.herbscancure.com/DoshaAnalysis.htm After you find the cause, correct that cause. Now for the remedies and suggestions : a) Try chewing a small piece of ginger (julienned or diced) after sprinkling some rock salt on it. Do this 10 minutes before and after every meal. b) Try taking Pudin Hara pearls or 3-4 drops of Spearmint oil. c) Chew some Fennel seeds or boil fennel seeds (Saunf) in 1 cup of water and sip it slowly.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 - Thanks Puneet and all who replied. I think diet has large part to do with the problem(as suspected) but the person's stomach was helped by ginger and mint. _____________________________- For acidic stomach, and acid reflux.
