Prevention & Alternative Treatment of Stomachaches
Prevention
Common stomachaches can be prevented by avoiding the following: overeating, excessive alcohol consumption, problem foods, and smoking.
Stomachaches may be prevented by enhancing digestion by taking fresh ginger or Draksha (Ayurvedic herbal wine) before meals.
Ginger or bay leaf tea or lassi (yogurt with cumin and ginger powders in water) taken after meals can aid digestion and prevent stomachaches.
Drinking warm drinks during meals aids digestion as does chewing food thoroughly.
