indiegstion is also called dyspepsia, is a term used to describe a feeling of fullness or discomfort during or after a meal. It can be accompanied by burning or pain in the upper stomach.

Indigestion (Dyspepsia, Upset Stomach)
What is dyspepsia (indigestion)?
Dyspepsia is one of the most common ailments of the bowel (intestines), affecting an estimated 20% of persons in the United States. Perhaps only 10% of those affected actually seek medical attention for their dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is not a particularly good term for the
ailment since it implies that there is "dyspepsia" or abnormal digestion of food, and this most probably is not the case. In fact, another common name for dyspepsia is indigestion, which, for the same reason, is no better than the term dyspepsia! Doctors frequently refer to the condition as non-ulcer dyspepsia.
Dyspepsia (indigestion) is best described as a functional disease. (Sometimes, it is called functional dyspepsia.) The concept of functional disease is particularly useful when discussing diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The concept applies to the muscular
organs of the gastrointestinal tract-esophagus, stomach, small intestine, gallbladder, and colon. What is meant by the term, functional, is that either the muscles of the organs or the nerves that control the organs are not working normally, and, as a result, the organs do
not function normally, and the dysfunction causes the symptoms. The nerves that control the organs include not only the nerves that lie within the muscles of the organs but also the nerves of the spinal cord and brain.
Some gastrointestinal diseases can be seen and diagnosed with the naked eye, such as ulcers of the stomach. Thus, ulcers can
be seen at surgery, on X-rays, and by endoscopy. Other diseases cannot be seen with the naked eye but can be seen and diagnosed under the microscope. For example,gastritis (inflammation of the stomach) can be diagnosed by
microscopic examination of biopsies of the stomach. In contrast, gastrointestinal functional diseases cannot be seen with the naked eye or with the microscope. In some instances, the abnormal function can be demonstrated by tests (for example, gastric emptying studies or antro-duodenal motility studies). However, the tests often are complex, are
not widely available, and do not reliably detect the functional abnormalities. Accordingly, and by default, functional gastrointestinal diseases are those that involve abnormal function of gastrointestinal organs in which the
abnormalities cannot be seen in the organs with either the naked eye or the microscope.
Occasionally, diseases that are thought to be functional are ultimately found to be associated with abnormalities that can be seen. Then,
the disease moves out of the functional category. An example of this would beHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection of the stomach. Some patients with mild upper gastrointestinal symptoms who were thought to have abnormal function of the stomach or intestines have
been found to have stomachs infected with H. pylori. This infection can be diagnosed under the microscope by identifying the bacterium. When patients are treated with antibiotics, the H. pylori and symptoms disappear. Thus, recognition of infections with
Helicobacter pylori has removed some patients' systems from the functional disease category.
The distinction between functional disease and non-functional disease may, in fact, be blurry. Thus, even functional diseases probably
have associated biochemical or molecular abnormalities that ultimately will be able to be measured. For example, functional diseases of the stomach and intestines may be shown ultimately to be associated with reduced or increased levels of normal chemicals within the
gastrointestinal organs, the spinal cord, or the brain. Should a disease that is demonstrated to be due to a reduced or increased chemical still be considered a functional disease? In this theoretical situation, we can't see the abnormality with the naked eye or the
microscope, but we can measure it. If we can measure an associated or causative abnormality, should the disease no longer be considered functional, even though the disease (symptoms) are being caused by abnormal function? The answer is unclear.
Despite the shortcomings of the term, functional, the concept of a functional abnormality is useful for approaching many of the
symptoms originating from the muscular organs of the gastrointestinal tract. To repeat, this concept applies to those symptoms for which there are no associated abnormalities that can be seen with the naked eye or the microscope.
While dyspepsia is a major functional disease(s), it is important to mention several other functional diseases. A second major functional disease is theirritable bowel syndrome, or IBS. The symptoms of IBS are thought to originate primarily from the small intestine and/or colon. The symptoms of IBS include abdominal pain that is accompanied by alterations in bowel movements (defecation), primarily
constipation or diarrhea. In fact, dyspepsia and IBS may be overlapping diseases since up to half of patients with IBS also have symptoms of dyspepsia. A third distinct functional disorder is non-cardiac chest pain. This pain may mimic heart pain (angina), but it is
unassociated with heart disease. In fact, non-cardiac chest pain is thought to result from a functional abnormality of the esophagus.
Functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract often are categorized by the organ of involvement. Thus, there are functional disorders
of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and gallbladder. The amount of research that has been done with functional disorders is greatest in the esophagus and stomach (for example, non-cardiac chest pain, dyspepsia), perhaps because these organs
are easiest to reach and study. Research into functional disorders affecting the small intestine and colon (IBS) is more difficult to conduct and there is less agreement among the research studies. This probably is a reflection of the complexity of the activities of the
small intestine and colon and the difficulty in studying these activities. Functional diseases of the gallbladder (referred to as biliary dyskinesia), like those of the small intestine and colon, also are more difficult to study, and at present they are less well-defined. Each
of the functional diseases is associated with its own set of characteristic symptoms.

- 1Boil water in a cup in the microwave. Add a one-inch piece of peeled ginger root to the water. Cover the cup with a saucer for 7 to 10 minutes.
- 2Remove the saucer and the piece of ginger from the cup and sweeten to taste. This remedy is a simple that will relieve both general nausea and the morning sickness associated with early pregnancy.
- 3Grate a cinnamon stick or two over your dessert after the end of a heavy meal. Cinnamon is a natural way to facilitate digestion and can save you from potential misery later.
- 4Pour yourself a mug of apple cider. Add a sprinkle of fresh lemon juice, some grated cinnamon (and a bit of sweetener, if you must). Heat this in a microwave for 90 seconds. Sip this after a meal if indigestion threatens to become an issue.
- 5Place 1/3 tsp. dried peppermint leaves, 1/3 tsp. chamomile and 1/3 tsp. peeled and grated ginger into a teabag. Steep for 10 to 15 minutes in a cup of boiling water. Sip slowly after meals or as often as needed to relieve gastrointestinal discomfort.
- 1Boil water in a cup in the microwave. Add a one-inch piece of peeled ginger root to the water. Cover the cup with a saucer for 7 to 10 minutes.
Use your nose to help you select dried herbs. If the herbs do not have a rich aroma, they are probably too old to be of any assistance because they have lost most of their essential oils to evaporation. When shopping for fresh leafy herbs, lightly pinch a leaf and smell it. If shopping for fresh ginger, scratch the surface and sniff to determine its freshness. The surface of ginger should be relatively blemish free, firm and even in color.
If your indigestion is accompanied by alternating sweats and chills, severe or bloody diarrhea, or a high fever with vomiting, then you should not try to self-medicate. These are signs of serious illness and you should contact your physician or go to an emergency room immediately for diagnosis and treatment.
