Dietary changes more important.
Avoid coffee, citrus, tomatoes, fatty/spicy/fried/masala food.

Do not eat full stomach. Instead eat multiple smaller meals.
Go to bed at least 2-3 hours after food.
If your job is very stressful, adopt some stress relief methods like meditation.

Thank you Sir.
Whenever I take Ganaton I become fully cured within 1 hour or so. But after 3 days again symptoms come back. Again I take Ganaton and again the cycle continues. Sir, is there any permanent cure?

Brief Answer:
Medications and lifestyle modifications
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
One capsule is not enough.
You need to take it everyday for at least 4 weeks.
The most important thing however is the dietary/lifestyle changes which I have mentioned in my previous post.
With these two you can remain symptom free.
