Indigestion

Indigestion is caused by eating too much heavy or greasy food. Drinking too much alcohol also causes the stomach to produce excess acid, which can be prevented by chewing food well and eating meals regularly.

People suffering from indigestion are usually given antacids or anti-acidity tablets.
