Acidity & Reflux — Digestive & Gut Health care at Dr. Era Ayurveda

Acidity & Reflux · the Agneya program

The burning that antacids quiet but never settle.

Treatable at the cause — not just neutralised for the evening.

Chronic acidity is usually a digestion problem, not an acid problem alone. Antacids neutralise acid for hours; they don’t change why it keeps returning. Ayurvedic treatment works on the digestive process itself — with medicines, meal structure and follow-up — and improvement is tracked on a symptom score, not guesswork.

What's actually happening

Understand before treating

Burning behind the chest or throat, sour belching, heaviness after meals — occurring several times a week, often for years, usually managed with over-the-counter antacids that work today and change nothing about tomorrow.

Treatable at the cause — not just neutralised for the evening.

How it’s assessed

A full history, a blood panel including liver markers, and a scored reflux questionnaire at Day 0. Long-term antacid use is recorded — it matters for interpreting your tests and planning any change.

How it’s treated

A doctor-prescribed protocol targeting digestion, with meal timing and diet changes that fit your actual routine. Typical improvement window: 4–8 weeks, tracked at Day 30 and Day 90.

An honest boundary

When this needs a different doctor

Difficulty swallowing, vomiting blood, black stools, unexplained weight loss, or new symptoms after 45 — these need endoscopic evaluation first. We screen for them and refer.

The next step

How it's assessed

It starts with the Agneya assessment — a few minutes of structured questions, no lab numbers needed. It doesn't diagnose; it tells you whether a clinical conversation is worth having, and a doctor decides everything after that.

If your answers point to something that needs a different doctor first, the assessment says so and routes you there instead of into a program. See what Agneya does and doesn't treat →
