Understanding Acidity & GERD in Ayurveda

From an Ayurvedic viewpoint, the digestive fire or Jtharagni plays a central role in metabolism, digestion, assimilation and elimination. When this fire becomes disturbed-especially by an excess of the Pitta dosha-acid production may increase, resulting in what Ayurveda describes as Amla Pitta .

In the case of GERD, the lower oesophageal sphincter (LES) fails to properly prevent gastric contents from flowing back into the oesophagus-hence the term "gastro-esophageal reflux".

Key factors include:

Elevated stomach acid / excessive Pitta burning sensation, sour belching.

Weakened or inflamed LES + delayed gastric emptying reflux symptoms.

Disturbed Jtharagni (either too strong- Tk a Agni -or erratic) leading to impaired digestion.

Why Acidity & GERD Are So Common in Urban Life

Living in a fast-paced city like Gurgaon can foster conditions that precipitate acidity/GERD:

These habits undermine the digestive fire and create a favorable environment for reflux and acid imbalance.

Irregular meal times, skipping meals or eating late at night

Frequent intake of fried, spicy or heavy foods

High stress, long working hours, inadequate sleep

Excess consumption of caffeine, carbonated drinks, alcoholic beverages

Air-conditioned indoor environments, sedentary behavior

Diet & Lifestyle Guidance

Warm, freshly cooked, light meals

Avoid spicy, sour, fried, citrus and fermented foods

Avoid tea, coffee, carbonated drinks and alcohol

Early dinner, avoid lying down immediately after meals

Use of ghee where advised to soothe the lining

Panchakarma for faster response

All therapies are done under doctor supervision.

Mild purgation ( Virechana ) for Pitta reduction

Abhyanga with steam to calm Vata and Pitta

Basti therapy in Vata-Pitta cases

Treatment of Stomach Problems at Ayulife :

Ayurveda identifies four states of Agni:

Acidity usually results from Teekshna Agni that is result of an excessively strong or overactive digestive fire. When Agni becomes too sharp, it digests food very quickly but also produces excess heat and acid in the stomach. This leads to:

People with Teekshna Agni benefit from cooling, soothing foods and avoiding spicy, oily, and acidic items to keep digestion balanced.
