  • When we eat, it passes through the mouth through the esophagus into the stomach.
  •  Acid is formed in our stomach with the help of enzymes, proteins etc. 
  • Which helps us in digestion
  • A valve is located between the end of the esophagus and the end of the stomach. 
  • In which the valve opens and then closes when food enters. After entering the stomach, It is closed in such a way that food cannot go back into the esophagus


*Causes of Acidity

  • Eating too much acidic food. 
  • By eating and sleeping immediately. 
  • By smoking cigarettes. 
  • From alcohol consumption
