hi sir/madam,
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.

Home remedies:-

1. Sour solution:-

Try drinking one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar mixed with a half-cup of water. This is particularly effective if you’ve overindulged at the dinner table.

2. Soda solution:-

Stir a teaspoon of baking soda into a glass of water and drink it. This solution neutralizes stomach acid and helps relieve gas and bloating. Add a few drops of lemon to dispel some of the gas before it hits your stomach.

3. Eat slowly and early:-

Your mother was right. Eat slowly and chew your food. Wolfing your food down makes you swallow gas, which can contribute to bloating and gas.
Eat your final big meal at least three hours before bedtime. You don’t digest very well when sleeping.

4. Chewable resources:-

Chewing and swallowing a spoonful of fennel or caraway seeds is a great way to stop indigestion. Both seeds contain oil that relieve spasms in the gut, relieve nausea and control flatulence.
Fennel or anise tea made with two to three teaspoons of the crushed seeds is another tasty solution.

5. Pamper yourself with peppermint:-

Peppermint oil soothes intestinal muscle spasms and helps prevent nausea. Take one to two capsules containing 2 mL (1 tsp.) of oil three times a day between meals.
If you prefer a cup of tea, then steep 1 1/2 teaspoons of dried peppermint in a cup of hot water. You can drink it hot or cold.

6. Well-rooted traditions:-

Ginger is justifiably famous for setting stomach upset and improving digestion. You can take capsules with meals, eat some candied ginger or brew up a cup of ginger tea.
Camomile is an age-old treatment for indigestion. It calms the stomach and soothes the intestinal tract. Drink a few cups of the tea during the day or take the tincture up to three times a day.

Consult your doctor for further treatments.
