The uneasy feeling can get quite bothersome and further give rise to acidity and indigestion issues. If you wish to stay away from all this, it is important to have a healthy and strong digestive system. Most Indian household kitchens are stored with healing herbs and spices that are replete with digestive-friendly properties.
