Indigestion can occur without any specific cause and is caused by poor or irregular eating habits. The stomach releases excess acid. It is normal for the stomach to release acid as the food is broken down with the acid here. However, the excess is not good. This is where the problem begins. Indigestion is characterized by stomach pain, stomach irritation, stomach pain, stomach swelling, and insufficient water intake.
In Goa’s research and training program, it was found that some yoga poses can help with indigestion. These poses are easy and simple and have many other health benefits that go beyond the indigestion issue!
