Indigestion

Symptoms of indigestion include:

abdominal discomfort,
a dull ache or stabbing pain in the center of the chest after eating,
wind and
heartburn.
Always be sure to consult a health professional who can help to ensure that your indigestion is not actually heart realted pain, or masking heart related pain.

Indigestion can be brought on by:

eating too fast,
certain foods,
anxiety and stress,
being overweight,
pregnancy, and
heavy smoking.
What you can do to help

Avoid eating fatty foods, which can make the condition worse.

Try to avoid eating a large meal late at night because this means going to bed with a large amount of undigested food and acid in the stomach.

Try eating a slice of fresh pineapple after meals to ease the symptoms (canned pineapple does not seem to be as effective).

Try to work out if you have any food allergies or intolerances that may be making the condition worse. Common culprits are:

wheat,
dairy products,
eggs,
citrus fruit, and
yeast.
Take acidophilus to help build up the healthy bacteria in the bowel to ensure optimum absorption of nutrients in the bowel and the health of the gut itself.

Take a good multivitamin and mineral supplement to ensure that the nutrients required for digestive functions are present.
