Around 1 in 4 people in India are affected by digestion problems. Digestive problems such as an upset stomach and indigestion occur when the food is not digested properly or due to underlying problems like gastroesophageal reflux disease, ulcers or gallbladder disease, bile duct issues or food intolerances, which can in turn cause symptoms like bloating, gas, nausea, vomiting, feeling full after a meal, or burning pain in the chest and stomach [1][2].
Stomach upset and indigestion can be caused by many reasons such as an unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, lack of fruits and vegetables in the diet, limited sleep, overeating, and insufficient water intake [3].
