TRUTH ABOUT ANTACIDS:- Eat too much at one time or keep long gaps between 2 meals and you will want to reach out for that antacid. So what’s wrong with your antacid? Actually what’s wrong with you, especially if you need it almost daily? Other than eating too much or having too big a gap between meals (which itself becomes a cause of overeating): stress (another cause of overeating: oh, comfort food), spicy food, harsh medication, in short hurry, worry, and curry, will cause heartburn, burping, constipation, bloating and everything in between. The ingredients of an antacid, including magnesium and aluminium, produce a laxative effect (washing off the good bacteria from your intestines, which can further aggravate your digestion problems), lead to hormonal imbalance, frequent urination, loss of appetite, dehydration and mood disorders too. Reaching for that salt, capsule, syrup to treat your symptom yet again? Give a thought for the cause and start eating right. It’s never too late.
