Indigestion - How Homeopathy Can Help?

The body undergoes certain hormonal changes when a woman reaches her menopause. The level of the oestrogen hormone decreases after menopause. The adrenalin hormone can be easily triggered without the presence of the high levels of oestrogen in the body. This leads to the switching off of the digestive system as your body concentrates more on the adrenalin levels. With the digestive system not working at the optimum, disorders like stomach swell and indigestion occur. Arsenic album, Carbo veg and China are some of the homeopathic remedies for treating indigestion.

Fennel seeds have a high content of volatile oils that help in reducing nausea and control flatulence. It is said to act as a carminative, i.e. it helps your body to expel gas and provide relief from indigestion. You can take a few seeds and chew them, munch them and consume them in the form of powder or prepare fennel tea. Apart from this natural remedy, Pulsatilla is a homeopathic medicine that you can take if you suffer from indigestion after having fatty foods.

If you are drinking water along with your meals, it can interfere with the natural levels of the bile and acid required by your stomach for digestion. If the water is cold, it can further disturb your digestion process. Your body will then be forced to warm that water in order to match its natural temperature. The focus shifts from extracting the nutrients from the consumed food to regulating the water temperature. This whole change in the system can become the cause of indigestion. Pulsatilla, China and Arsenic Album are top homeopathic medicines for treating indigestion.

Maximum cases of chronic indigestion are of the non-ulcer type. It is also known as functional dyspepsia as it is found to be related to abnormalities in the way that your stomach empties the content in the intestines. In some patients, the stomach empties either too rapidly or too slowly. Other people may face uncoordinated and irregular muscle contractions in the stomach, which lead to indigestion. These disorders can be caused due to the hypersensitive nerve endings in your stomach tissues. It is found that people who have been taking medicines for depression and anxiety are more likely to face this. Homeopathic medicine Nux Vomica is considered to be the best remedy for treating such stomach problems.
