Being packed with protein, calcium, and fats, cheese helps obtain healthy weight gain. One serving of cheese can give enough calories to your body. It really tastes delicious. Choose cottage cheese as it contains high quality protein ‘casein’, which takes time to digest, and thus, results in weight gain. For quick result, eat it before bed time.

Uric acid is generated by protein indigestion, in the absence or lack of pepsin (enzyme) it often aggravates. The natural source of pepsin is found highly in bark of un-ripped papayas. It must be taken twice a day. Cooked bark of papayas with sesame oil & spicies is ideal. Virechan-Karma and Lekhan-basti are found most effective therapy for controlling the dyslipidaemia. I'have managed many patients of dyslipidaemia by above said therapy and intake of pure ghee only home made (avoid pure ghee wh...more

Acid returning to oesophagus due to reverse motility is the cause of your problem (Gastro Oesophagial Reflux Disorder, GORD or GERD). It may be an artificially produced problem. Drugs like Pantaprazole or Rabeprazole inhibit acid secretion in the stomach. The deficiency of acid, (Not Hyperacidity) causes food to remain unhydrolyzed in the stomach that prevents action of Pepsin because Pepsinogen is not changed into Pepsin properly due to inhibition of Acid secretion. Result ? Food stays longer i...more

Milk digestion begins in the acidic environment of the stomach, where pepsin starts protein digestion by breaking down milk proteins into smaller fragments. Lingual lipase does the same to milk fats. These smaller fragments then move into the small intestine for further digestion.
Connector.
In the small intestine, proteases and lipases further break down milk proteins and fats (and their fragments) and bile is also secreted into the small intestine to help with fat digestion.
