Question

On eating spicy food we feel burning sensation in our stomach ,why? Which medicine will you take as a remedy

Answer 1

The gastric glands present in our stomach produces HCl acid on eatin greasy and spicy food which may cause acidity and may cause a burning sensation in the stomach.We usually take mild antacids like baking soda and milk of magnesia to neutralise the excess of acids present in our stomach..

When an acid reacts with metal carbonate or metal bicarbonate it produces CO_2,H₂O and salt..

When an acid reacts with metal oxide it gives salt and water..
