- Cucumbers are great digestives and have a cleansing effect on the bowel, so include them in your daily diet.
- Curry leaves have the qualities of herbal tonic and are used in the treatment of digestive disorders, morning sickness, vomiting and dysentery.
- Eat moderate portions. If you keep portion sizes reasonable, it's easier to eat the foods you want and digest them and stay healthy.
- For indigestion/acidity - drink lime juice mixed with ginger juice. Pudina (Mint) also helps indigestion.
- In suffering from an upset stomach with flatulence, take dry ginger powder mixed with buttermilk for quick relief.
- Include 5 to 10 thin slivers of ginger soaked in lemon juice in your meals to reduce gastric problems.
- Make meal times pleasant by listening to music as it aids in digestion.
- Mix coriander juice with buttermilk and drink it to treat indigestion.
- Substitute normal tea with green tea to aid digestion and boost immunity.
- The juice of tulsi leaves mixed with ½ teaspoon cardamom powder acts as an antidote for vomiting.
