Acidity (Amlapitta)

Acidity, also known as acid reflux or heartburn, is a common digestive disorder characterized by an excessive production of stomach acid. This condition often leads to discomfort and a burning sensation in the chest and throat.

Acidity in Ayurveda

Acidity, known as "Amlapitta" in Ayurveda, is a condition caused by an imbalance of the "Pitta" dosha, leading to excessive acidic content in the stomach.

Causes:

Agni Imbalance: Disruption in the digestive fire (agni) leads to incomplete digestion, resulting
in acidity.

Excessive Pitta: Aggravation of the Pitta dosha due to spicy, oily, and acidic foods.

Emotional Factors: Stress, anger, and anxiety can also contribute to acidity according to
Ayurveda.

Dietary Factors: Consuming spicy, oily, or acidic foods can trigger acidity.

Lifestyle Choices: Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and stress contribute to increased
acidity levels.

Medical Conditions: Obesity, hiatal hernia, and certain medications can also exacerbate acidity.

Complications and Symptoms:

Complications: Ayurveda warns that prolonged Amlapitta can lead to complications such as ulcers and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Prolonged acidity can lead to complications such as esophagitis, ulcers, and Barrett's esophagus.

Symptoms: Typical symptoms include a burning sensation in the chest and throat, sour taste in the mouth, nausea, and bloating.

Diagnosis of the Disease:

Pulse Diagnosis: The pulse to identify imbalances in the doshas, especially Pitta.

Tongue Examination: Examination of the tongue's coating and color can provide insights into digestive health and imbalances.

Patient History: Understanding dietary habits, lifestyle factors, and emotional well-being helps in diagnosis.

Physical Examination: Healthcare professionals may perform a physical examination to assess symptoms and potential complications.

Endoscopy: This procedure allows doctors to visualize the esophagus and stomach to diagnose any abnormalities.

pH Monitoring: Ambulatory pH monitoring measures acid levels in the esophagus over a period of time to diagnose acidity.
