The correct option is C Cucumbers
Excess of acids in the stomach causes acidity. A person suffering from acidity have symptoms like heartburns, stomach ache because of ulcers and vomiting.
Acidity is caused by different types of food like junk food, sugary food, oily and spicy foods such as samosa and cola. Having excess sour things like lemon juice can increase acidity.
Water rich food such as vegetables like cucumbers is healthy, keeps the body hydrated and also prevents acidity.

As the holiday season ended, Gigi struggled to put on her blue jeans. They seemed much tighter than usual, so she stepped on the weight scale and received the bad news. She had never seen such a high number on the little scale, so she resolved to change. That day she threw out all of the junk food in her fridge and went grocery shopping. She was determined to lose weight, so she bought low-fat and reduced calorie versions of all of her favorite foods. When she got home she had a low-sodium bacon sandwich and a diet soda. For dinner she had two burgers with reduced fat cheese and half-fat mayonnaise, along with two low-calorie ice-cream sandwiches for dessert. Before she went to bed, she ate a bag of baked potato chips, which are healthier than normal chips, and dipped them into low-fat cream cheese. When Gigi woke up the next morning, she was pleased with how well her diet was going, but when she stepped on to the scale, she saw that she had gained a kilogram.
