Dyspepsia

Do you suffer from stomach pain or discomfort which is also accompanied by the following symptoms?

  • Heartburn
  • Abdominal pain
  • Nausea
  • Bloating (fullness)
  • Regurgitation (reflux)

If so you may have "functional dyspepsia". You should make an appointment to see a health professional to discuss causes of your symptoms and treatment options.

If you have some of these symptoms with diarrhoea or constipation you may have the related condition called Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Click here for more information on IBS.

There are many possibilities to assist you in managing these symptoms, including a clinically proven herbal medicine called Iberogast prescribed by health professionals. For more information on Iberogast, click here.

Avoid or lessen

The following things related to your diet and lifestyle could aggravate your symptoms:

  • large or fatty meals
  • eating before lying down or going to bed
  • smoking or drinking
  • any triggering factors like stress, eating too quickly or spicy foods
  • too little insoluble fibre in your diet
  • some drugs like NSAIDs, calcium channel blockers or theophylline may also aggravate symptoms.

If you are suffering from any of the symptoms of “dyspepsia”, ask your practitioner about the clinically proven herbal medicine Iberogast.

To increase the insoluble fibre in your diet consider Agiofibe
