Natural Remedies For Stomach Ache & Indigestion

Natural remedies can ease stomach pain fast but frequently they don't.

And all too often the latest fads to fix our digestion make things worse!!

The big secret for most of us is to rebalance the core essentials in our digestive system but that takes time.

So how can we fix stomach pain fast without knocking our gut off kilter?

Well, I have here 7 simple stomach pain remedies you can whip up easily from kitchen supplies PLUS key next steps for rebalancing your gut :

  1. Baking Soda
  2. Natural Yoghurt
  3. Ginger Tea
  4. Chamomile Tea
  5. Golden Milk
  6. Celery Juice
  7. Cucumber & Coconut Smoothie

This is not medical advice. Always seek qualified medical advice for severe & ongoing stomach pain.

7 Simple Natural DIY Stomach Ache Remedies

1. Bicarbonate of Soda

Natural Stomach Remedies - Baking Soda

Bicarbonate of soda - baking soda to Americans - is the simplest home remedy for stomach pain.

Bicarb relieves stomach pain tied to:

  • Acid reflux & heartburn
  • Constipation
  • Gastritis (excess gas)
  • Cystitis
  • Bloating.

To use as a stomach pain remedy :

  1. Add ½ teaspoon baking soda
  2. To a small glass (4oz/120ml)
  3. Of cool to tepid but not cold water
  4. Ensure baking soda fully dissolved
  5. Sip slowly.

The bicarb will neutralise excess gastric acid and release trapped gas.

The remedy is best taken :

  • An hour after eating
  • 2 to 3 times a day
  • At least 2 hours apart
  • For no more than 2 weeks.

2. Natural Live Yoghurt

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Yoghurt

Plain natural yoghurt can quickly relieve stomach pain tied to:

  • Over eating
  • Constipation
  • Stomach bugs
  • Cystitis
  • Gastritis (*for some people).

*Do not take yoghurt if you suffer excess gas - i.e. burping - and eat a diet rich in fibrous & fermented food.

The bacteria in the yoghurt can aid digestion and as a natural antibiotic help fight bacterial infections.

To take as a stomach pain remedy :

  • Eat 2 to 3 dessert spoons
  • At breakfast
  • Or at the end of a meal
  • Or when you feel pain.

Do not exceed 6 spoons a day.

N.B. Do read your yoghurt label!!

Your natural yoghurt should just contain milk and live cultures. One very big brand gut healthy yoghurt I checked out contained :

  • Glucose-Fructose Syrup
  • Sugar
  • Maltodextrin
  • Flavourings
  • Water
  • Skimmed Milk (Reconstituted)
  • PLUS live cultures.

The sugar & preservatives will undermine the benefits of bacteria AND make stomach pain worse!!

3. Ginger Tea

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Ginger Tea

DIY ginger tea is a calming stomach pain remedy that can relieve :

  • Constipation
  • Bladder infections
  • Gastritis caused by h pylori bacteria as ginger is a natural antibiotic.

If you suffer from acid reflux & heartburn drink ginger tea with care as it can over relax the connecting muscle between our stomach and food pipe letting acid escape

To make your own ginger tea as a DIY stomach pain remedy :

  1. Add 1 teaspoon of dried ginger
  2. Or a knob of chopped fresh ginger
  3. To a small pan of just boiled water
  4. Seep for 3 minutes or so
  5. Strain over a teaspoon of honey
  6. Or drink neat.

Homemade ginger tea is also a useful natural remedy for :

  • Cold Relief
  • Sinus Congestion
  • Stress & Tension Headache
  • Minor gum, throat & sinus infections as a natural antibiotic.

So it really is worth stocking ginger and not just saving it for Christmas gingerbread cookies and houses!!

4. Chamomile Tea

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Chamomile Tea

Chamomile is a useful home remedy for stress related stomach pain.

Persistent stress triggers stomach pain because excess adrenalin and cortisol hormones cause :

  • Tight digestive muscles which contribute to constipation
  • Surplus gastric acid and acid reflux
  • Gut lining inflammation which adds to gastritis & bloating.

Simple stress relief activities help longer term but a cup of chamomile tea can instantly ease pain.

To make chamomile tea :

  1. Pour 1 cup of just boiled water
  2. Over 1 teaspoon of dried chamomile flowers
  3. Steep for 3 minutes
  4. Strain and drink neat
  5. Or add ½ teaspoon of honey.

Chamomile is another useful herb to keep in stock as it is a gentle natural antibiotic and relaxant that can :

  • Treat minor skin infections
  • Get rid of blackheads
  • Relieve headaches
  • Calm sunburn
  • Ease sore throats
  • And unblock sinus congestion.

5. Golden Milk

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Turmeric Golden Milk

Golden milk is a traditional stomach pain remedy made from turmeric.

Research now shows turmeric can relieve stomach inflammation and infection. In just 15 minutes turmeric stopped the growth of the h pylori bacteria, a major cause of the burning stomach pain of gastritis.

Golden milk is easy to make with this quick homemade remedy :

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon ginger
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 cups / 500 ml milk of choice

Method

  • Simply mix the spices with a tablespoon of the milk until it is well absorbed
  • Blend with the rest of the milk
  • Heat gently for a few minutes.

Many golden milk recipes include black pepper but do NOT include it as it is very aggravating if you have any damage to your stomach lining.

6. Celery Juice

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Celery Juice

Celery juice is a great quick stomach remedy and helps long term healing.

It can be used to relieve :

  • Inflammation behind bloating
  • Gastric acid causing acid reflux
  • Bacteria behind cystitis
  • Slow bowels of constipation.

Celery can also start to heal damage to our stomach and food pipe lining from repeated acid reflux.

But celery is rich in fermentable sugars and can make stomach pain from excess gas and IBS worse. So skip this remedy if you suffer either.

You can make your own celery juice :

  • With celery and water in a juicer
  • Or by blending and sieving to remove the pulp.

If you have stomach pain from constipation warm the celery juice gently un-sieved and drink as soup.

For extra gut health goodies try this celery juice recipe with ginger, cucumber and apple ...

7. Cucumber & Coconut Smoothie

Natural Stomach Pain Remedies - Cucumber & Coconut Smoothie

Smoothies can soothe stomach pain but acidic & fibrous fruit make stomach pain worse for those with acid reflux and gastritis symptoms.

A good quick stomach-soothing alternative is a smoothie with :

  • Cucumber
  • Banana
  • Coconut

The banana should be ripe but not over ripe. If you don't tolerate bananas well swap for avocado.

The cucumber could be swapped for papaya which is low acid and low fodmap and can help get rid of stomach bugs and even pinworms!!

For extra stomach soothing add :

  • Ginger
  • Fresh parsley - a natural antibiotic that stops unwanted bacteria attaching to our digestive lining.

If you want a recipe with specific measurements & steps try this one from Happy Healthy Mama

    Am suffering from severe heartburn for years. Is there any treatment that I can use to be completely healed other than taking omeprazole daily

      Hi Alec - thanks for the message. Most powerful treatment seems to be avoiding all the triggers - sodas, alcohol, sugar, caffeine, most fruit, fruit juice, mint, chocolate, tomatoes & peppers, black pepper, onion & garlic, deep fried food - for long enough for your food pipe and LES sphincter to heal. It looks really hard but it is honestly a much easier diet than I thought. Some people do heal in as little as 6 weeks, other people find it is six months but they are then clear of medication. Some vegetable juices e.g. celery plus coconut, honey and aloe vera seem to help with healing as they help regrow the protective mucous layer of our food pipe. For more support check out The Acid Watcher Diet from Jonathon Aviv.
