<\/span>Introduction<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Being a foodie is common among Indians and so are digestive issues. Indigestion, gas, bloating, hiccups, heartburn, stomach pain, ulcers, and nausea are some of the common features of digestive problems. These are the frequent problems arising from an unhealthy lifestyle, which includes binge eating, smoking, drinking alcohol, sleep disorders, eating junk, and stress.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The discomfort makes these problems hard to ignore, but it is also not convenient to visit the doctor or pharmacy so frequently for the recurring problems.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While some medical conditions may lead to digestive issues, some of the most common causes of digestive issues include lifestyle factors like stress, excessive dairy consumption, an inactive lifestyle, and inadequate fibre in the diet.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
