we suffer from the painful ailment of acidity. Due to this, there is indigestion. Excess stress is also a reason for acidity. When you are stressed, the process of digestion tends to be slow as there is inaccurate flow of blood and oxygen.

There is excessive buildup of undigested food leading to extreme excretion of the acid by the stomach cells. As this excess acid goes to the esophagus a person gets a feeling of heartburn. The heart feels a stabbing pain if the person is suffering from GERD. The esophagus renders a burning sensation along the esophagus lining.
