Drinks for Gastric Acid Sufferers, There is Ginger Tea


KOMPAS.com – Stomach acid is one of the most common digestive complaints in Indonesian society.

Symptoms of stomach acid include a burning sensation or burning pain in the middle of the chest that can spread to the throat. Some sufferers also complain of a bad taste in the mouth and bad breath.
