Due to our unhealthy eating habits and stressful lifestyle, we all have digestive problems.

The food juice that is formed after the digestion of the food we eat nourishes all the templet in our body.
If the enzymes present in the liver do not perform their function properly, then the problem of indigestion occurs, which is very painful.

       There can be many reasons for stomach upset.

Eating too much oily and spicy food.
Eating more than hunger.

Eating too much junk food, fast food, and food containing preservatives.
Consuming contaminated water.
Consuming alcohol or smoking in excessive amounts.

Sleeping or sitting immediately after eating.

😨When was the last time you felt something wrong with your stomach?

About 5-6 months ago, I often had stomach problems. I used to have frequent loose motions and stomach pain. I would get medicines from the doctor and after taking the medicine for two-three days, when I felt a little better, I would stop taking the medicine. Due to this, my stomach started getting upset frequently.

I was very upset due to frequent stomach problems. Then I got complete treatment as per the doctor's instructions and now I am completely fine.

😨Tell me if you use home remedies or traditional medicine to get relief from discomfort?

Yes, to get relief from discomfort, first we do some home remedies at home.

If someone in the house has stomach pain, I prepare a powder by mixing asafoetida, cumin, celery and black salt, which gives relief when taken with hot water.

I keep a few essential medicines at home, which are often useful in case of sudden discomfort.

If these medicines do not provide relief, I immediately go to the doctor.

😨Do you know how to differentiate between stomach upset due to indigestion, colitis or gastritis?

Indigestion is a common problem, which causes bloating, discomfort, and feeling of fullness in the stomach. Indigestion also causes gas and nausea.

Colitis causes inflammation or irritation in the inner lining of the large intestine and rectum.

This can also cause bleeding.

Gastritis
Gas formation in the intestines is a common thing. But its symptoms - belching, gas, bloating, stomach discomfort - can be embarrassing and even painful.

Gastritis involves the stomach and intestines, while colitis involves only the colon.

People suffering from gastritis experience nausea and vomiting while people suffering from colitis experience bloody diarrhea.

😨If the discomfort is too severe, go to the emergency room or just self-medicate?

If the discomfort is too severe, one should always go to the emergency room immediately. Sometimes it is too late to self-medicate. And the person may even die. That is why one should immediately go to the emergency room in case of severe discomfort.

😨What measures do you take to avoid stomach upset?

As I have mentioned above, I have had very upset stomach in the past. I have suffered a lot from all this. Now I take great care that I do not have an upset stomach, for this I take special care of the cleanliness of my kitchen and my hands.

After waking up in the morning, the first thing I do is drink two glasses of lukewarm water.

I eat very light food, do not eat food with too much oil and spices. I never eat more than my hunger.

After eating food, I definitely take a short walk.

I do yoga for a while in the morning.

I use absolutely clean water for drinking.

I do not use water while eating so that the food gets digested properly. If ever required, I do not drink more than one or two sips of water with food.

I try to eat as little outside food as possible.

I rarely use preservative food in my house.

I have dinner at least two and a half to three hours before sleeping. And I definitely drink a glass of milk half an hour before sleeping.

Now I invite my 3 friends. @vishwara @ulfatulrahmah @ifatniza
