is sugarcane juice good for acidity

Agastya

I am really curious whether sugarcane juice is good for acidity. Last week, I had this awful heartburn after eating some spicy food, and it's been hard to shake ever since. A friend mentioned that drinking sugarcane juice could help, but I wasn't convinced. I mean, how can something so sweet help with acidity? I did some research and found mixed opinions online. Some people just rave about sugarcane juice and say it's like a miracle for digestion, while others warn about its sugar level. I tried it once at a food festival, and honestly, it felt soothing at the moment, but I’m not sure if it was just a temporary fix. I’ve also been feeling bloated and it's frustrating because I don't want to keep popping antacids. Is there compelling evidence that sugarcane juice is good for acidity long-term? Or should I stick to other remedies like ginger tea? My diet's kind of all over the place right now, and I'm scared I might be making it worse. What do you all think? Is sugarcane juice truly beneficial, or is it just another food trend that people blow out of proportion?

Doctors' responses

Sugarcane juice might provide some temporary relief for acidity, but its long-term effectiveness for managing heartburn isn’t strongly supported by scientific evidence. Sugarcane juice is alkaline by nature and could help neutralize stomach acid briefly, which might be why you felt some immediate soothing. However, because it contains high glycemic sugar, drinking it frequently might lead to blood sugar spikes, which isn’t ideal for everyone, especially those with conditions like diabetes. The acidity you’re experiencing might be related to GERD or gastritis, and consistently relying on sugarcane juice won’t address these underlying causes. You mentioned feeling bloated, which could indicate digestive disturbances that warrant more precise solutions. Trying to incorporate lifestyle changes might be more beneficial. Eat smaller meals more frequently, and try to avoid spicy or fatty foods that can exacerbate acid reflux. Ginger tea indeed can be soothing and has anti-inflammatory properties, which might offer some relief and is likely a better alternative given your symptoms. Consider keeping a food diary to identify and avoid your triggers. If lifestyle changes and remedies don’t alleviate your symptoms, especially if they persist or worsen, seeking further evaluation with an HCP would be wise. They may perform tests like an endoscopy to explore if there’s an underlying condition that needs targeted treatment. Most importantly, staying mindful of how different foods affect your body is key to managing symptoms and maintaining overall digestive health.
