Supplements To Help With Acid Reflux And Overeating Symptoms
December is here and so are all the festivities and indulgences!
While is absolutely ok to enjoy the most wonderful time of the year, it’s also important to look after ourselves when we are binge eating and drinking. One of the main symptoms of overindulgence is acid reflux and tummy pains, so let’s have a look at some supplements that can help with acid reflux and overeating symptoms, and can support our digestive system throughout the festivities.
Ginger
Ginger has been used for its medicinal purposes for many years as it offers a number of health benefits. Ginger claims to alleviate nausea and can settle upset stomachs. It is also believed that ginger has anti-inflammatory properties, which can erase the symptoms of the common cold, winter flu, as well as offering relief to headaches.
Studies found that taking 3 grams of ginger powder daily can improve symptoms of indigestion including stomach cramping, stomach pain, feelings of fullness, and burping.
Another study saw that ginger can speed up stomach emptying, which is very important, as delayed stomach emptying can contribute to symptoms of acid reflux such as heartburn and regurgitation.
