Dear Roopashree,
I nowadays develop severe acidity after eating cakes, bread and bakery products.
This did not happen earlier.
Though I have reduced bakery products a lot, I cannot completely avoid bakery products.
Can you please give a solution to the acidity and to reduce reaction to bakery products?
Thank you,
Abhijat
Ans: Isn’t it what we all dream of?
Unfortunately, bakery products are a combination of the three prohibited whites for our digestive system -- sugar, salt and refined flour, topped with lots of baking soda, artificial stimulants, colours and so on…
When we are younger, our body is able to process these and get rid of the toxins but, as we grow old, our physical routine is reduced and our system becomes more sluggish.
On top of it, binge-eating creates a backlog of food in the intestines that leads to acidity problems.
If you still crave for baked products, only go for good quality -- try whole wheat bakery products in moderation, but only once in a couple of weeks.
The best option will always be to bake them yourself – using yeast, whole wheat, healthy sweeteners, etc.
Bon Appetit!
