A member asked:
I was told that a teaspoon of mustard helped with an upset stomach but on here it says otherwise. my question is why doesnt it help? would tea help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Upset stomach: If the stomach distress is caused by gas entrapment taking mylanta or drinking hot water or weak tea should help by breaking down the gas bubbles. If acid irritation of the stomach lining is responsible, mylanta,maalox or even a prilosec capsule would help. If nausea is present, flat ginger ale should help.
