Can a Naturopathic Doctor Treat Indigestion?

Can a Naturopathic Doctor Treat Indigestion?

Can a Naturopathic Doctor Treat Indigestion?

Of course!

Indigestion may be described as heartburn, acid reflux, or general discomfort after eating.

Naturopathic medicine treats each person as an individual. Not everyone’s root cause is the same.

ND’s take a thorough examination so all potential triggers are questions: 

  • Prescription medications?
  • Weight gain?
  • Possible food sensitivities or triggers? 
  • Coffee, tomatoes, chocolate, alcohol, oranges, mint, pop o Eating or drinking too fast? 
  • Hyper-digestion? (too much hydrochloric acid in the stomach)
  • Hypo-digestion? (not enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach)
  • Stress? 

There are a lot of different natural ways to approach indigestion before resorting to conventional medications over-the-counter or otherwise.

Eliminating potential food triggers, losing weight, chewing your food slowly, drinking fresh lemon juice in water upon rising and throughout the day, and having dandelion tea can all improve digestion. Apple cider vinegar can improve hydrochloric acid in your stomach, allowing your food to be broken down more efficiently.

Whatever your root cause is, be rest assured that a Naturopathic Doctor has a lot of tools in her tool-belt to get the job done, whether it’s acupuncture, nutrition, homeopathy, or lifestyle changes!
