Why Homoeopathy Offers Better Support for Acidity Than PPIs
If you find yourself reaching for a PPI every time acidity strikes, you are not alone. Many rely on daily acid blockers like omeprazole or Pan-D for relief. But these medicines may only suppress your symptoms rather than support your body.
At Warrior Homoeopath, we believe your gut deserves gentle, lasting care. Homoeopathy provides a natural, non-suppressive approach that supports digestive healing without unwanted side effects.
What PPIs Do
PPIs, or Proton Pump Inhibitors, block the production of stomach acid. This brings temporary relief from heartburn, bloating, and acid reflux. However, over time, this suppression can cause new issues such as:
- Poor absorption of nutrients like vitamin B12, calcium, and magnesium
- Disruption of gut flora
- Rebound acidity when stopped
- Higher risk of kidney damage and bone weakness
PPIs may mask the symptoms, but they do not correct the underlying cause.
How Homoeopathy Supports Digestion
Homoeopathy helps restore natural balance. Instead of forcing your body to stop producing acid, it looks at why your digestion is under strain in the first place. Whether it is from poor liver function, food intolerances, stress, or sluggish gut movement, Homoeopathy works with your system to support repair.
