Hyperacidity and acid reflux are common gastrointestinal conditions caused by excess secretion of stomach acid, often leading to symptoms such as heartburn, bloating, nausea, and a burning sensation in the chest. These issues are typically aggravated by poor dietary habits, stress, and irregular eating patterns. In ayurveda, this condition is associated with an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which governs heat and metabolism in the body which is addressed by restoring this balance.
