What is indigestion?

Indigestion (dyspepsia) is often caused by stomach acid irritating the stomach lining or throat (acid reflux)1 and symptoms usually happen soon after eating or drinking. Other common symptoms include feeling full or bloated, feeling sick and burping.

How to relieve trapped wind

Trapped wind (flatulence) can make you feel full, bloated and uncomfortable. Wind, or gas, is produced during digestion as bacteria in the gut breaks down food and it’s a normal part of the process.

Our bodies can produce up to 25 litres of gas a day but just a small amount is released as wind.

Heartburn is a burning feeling in the middle of the chest. It’s caused by gastric acid (acid reflux) travelling up from the stomach towards the throat. It can be caused by certain food and drinks and other lifestyle factors.
