You must have 1 to 2 pods of raw garlic. It is a popular belief that raw garlic improves digestive problems.
4) Tulsi (Basil) Leaves
Majority of Indian households are aware of the medicinal properties of tulsi. According to Luke, you must take tulsi or basil leaves, wash them well and chew them directly. You can also boil tulsi leaves into an infusion and consume that.
5) Lemon Water
After stomach infection or acute inflammation, have lemon water. You can mix some raw honey into it.
6) Apple Cider Vinegar With Mother
Luke suggested that you must have apple cider vinegar with mother with water. Dilute 1 tablespoon of it in a glass of water and drink it.

Take grated fresh ginger, 1-inch piece, and boil it in water. You can mix lemon juice and some raw honey to it. If you want, add mashed garlic as well. Have it at least one to two times a day.
