Natural Cure For Heartburn Or Urban Myth
Many people claim to have found a heartburn home remedy
but there are just as many convinced that a supposed natural cure for
heartburn is nothing more than an urban myth. Notwithstanding, it is
probably true that in many cases some of the recommended lotions
and potions act as a placebo and indirectly contribute to a
natural cure for heartburn.
A fair number of the natural cures for heartburn and indigestionin
appear to be harmless flights of fancy but, nevertheless, it
would be best to have a chat with your doctor or a medical
man or woman before starting on some out of the
run-of-the-mill relief for heartburn remedies. Very much so in the case of
expectant mothers who often suffer from heartburn.
Whenever a natural cure for heartburn is discussed, ginger is
cited as a panacea. It’s spot on that
ginger has long been thought to settle queasy tummies and, in
fact, some companies operating inshore sea trips give out
ginger pills for this reason. This might possibly work in some
cases and there is evidence to support the use of ginger tablets
in these circumstances. Other ginger-based thingssuggested by
their many enthusiasts include ginger in it’s many guises of crystallized stem ginger, ginger tea,
ginger-flavoured boiled sweets and ginger biscuits even though
the real ginger content of a ginger cookie is often just above 1%.
Another of the suspects thought by some people to
be useful in treating heartburn and indigestion is honey.
There are no studies in the recent past which suggest honey as a
trustworthy cure for heartburn, there is some
supporting evidence that Active Manuka honey is helpful in
treating youngsters who have an attack of gastroenteritis. Undoubetdly
that honey of the Active Manuka variety is invested with a unique antibacterial property
which suggests it should be considered for internal and external
use.
Herbal tea is often suggested as a natural heartburn relief;
but which one? There are many favorite herb teas such as
seed tea, cinnamon tea, slippery bark elm tea and fennel seed
tea. It is said by some people that these have a soothing effect and
are best taken in the evening.
Liquorice or to gige it it’s full name DGL – De-Glycyrrhizinated Liquorice -
is well regarded as a heartburn home remedies in tablet form
if chewed consistently and digested around twenty minutes preceding a main
meal.
The juice from the Aloe Vera plant became all the vogue
some time ago and almost became a universal panacea for
everything. On the other hand there are some facts to support the
claim that a small glass before a meal will assist in soothing an
upset stomach. if you have the guts to have a go please ensure your purchase
is for internal use as there are various Aloe Vera products
suitable for exterior use only.
It’s unavoidable that in any talk about a likely cure for
heartburn there will be at least one out of the ordinary if not downright wacky
contribution but there are actually two which will take some pluck
and ingenuity to try. One cure the inevitable ginger, but in
this case from Africa, and it needs to be mixed with something
not often in every pantry. If you take sap from a mango tree
with crushed ginger you’ll end up with a concoction known in the
Congo as tangawisi juice – supposed to be a remedy for stomach pains.
The other thing to try, and on this occasion it’s in most
larders, will need some courage to give it a go
and comes from France. It is said that it was favoured by the
Spanish Conquistadors Cortes and Pizarro in their 15C and 16C
century voyages of discovery to the new world. Fact or fiction, who knows?
However, if you want to try it, just take one teaspoon of yellow
mustard and, open sesame, in an instant all your heartburn
will not be there anymore, or that’s what I’m lead to believe!
It’s undeniable that most, if not all, of these remedies will
are successfull for some folk. On the other hand, you will have to
make up your own mind, by trial if any is, for you, a
heartburn home remedy or old wives’ tail.
