i probably should have taken better care of my tummy last nite. i had some apple pie thing i bought, 4 big walnut biscuits,3 shots of cognac and a mug of water. an hour later i also had some ginger drink coz i knew something was coming. anyway, went to sleep and woke up an hour later with some pretty nasty stomach pains. i got up and tried to do a yoga stance i know that cures indigestion. seemed to help, then i went to the toilet which wasnt too excruciating.anyway, just wanted to ask if anyone has extra ideas. obviously we cant do them all at the same time otherwise it will do more harm than good. i'm thinking peppermint, ginger or chamomile tea, the yoga twist stance on both sides (sorry but i forgotten the name) and maybe some charcoal from burnt toast later.good day~
Answer:
After a "good supper feast"--fat-laden, or too many rich foods, and large quantity--the stomach may ache for two reasons: 1) overstressed muscles due to an inappropriate digestion, or 2) a gallbladder over-reaction because of the so fat-laden food content.In either case, you'll do good if you try a stomach relaxing tea, such as Basil in combination with Chamomile and Peppermint. And always have at hand a Bromelain (enzyme) nutritional supplement. You can take up to three capsules with the suggested tea.Believe me when I tell you that this tea will do you far more good than Milanta, or Peptobismol, etc.Good luck! :)
try peppermint.its supposed to soothe stomach aches.
The best thing I know for digestion difficulty is fennel. You can eat them, about 1/4 teaspoon at a time or make a tea using about 1 teaspoon per cup of water and steep for 5-10 minutes.Your tummy ache may have been from the apple pie thing alone. If it was deep fried, that may be your answer. You can't digest deep fried oil, meaning the general public, not just you. I would normally not eat something like that because it gives me horrendous stomach pains. For that, 1/2 to a whole bottle of beer usually works for indigestion caused from deep fried foods (chips, french fries, donuts, those apple pie things, etc.). I imagine that it would taste especially good with donuts. Kidding.If you have plainly eaten too much then the fennel is better because it is less filling than beer and in that case, just chew some. You don't have to swallow the seeds after you chew them, just swallow the saliva infused with the fennel and spit out the chewed seeds.Fennel tea is also excellent for infants with colic, children with tummy aches, and people like us, that sometimes eat the wrong foods and food combinations. If you have stomach flu or food poisoning with nausea, then fresh ginger would be better.Feel better.
Ginger or peppermint will cure you, %26 so will some moderation when it comes to eating carbs, you silly person!
