Question

I've been taking Famocid tablets every day for the past ten years due to my gastric issues. Is there any way I can completely resolve this problem?

I've been dealing with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and I'm feeling pretty confused about how to find the right treatment. Is IBS something that can actually be treated or am I likely to struggle with this long-term? I'm open to trying out different treatments, whether it's allopathic, homeopathic, or Ayurveda, but I just don't know where to start. Any advice on what might be the best route to take?

Question

I've been noticing for a while now that whenever I eat, everything tastes way too spicy, and it makes me lose interest after just a few bites. It's like everyone else finds it normal, but for me, it feels like there's too much spice in the food. This has been a thing for the past few years. Also, sometimes when I'm brushing, my gums bleed a bit. Could these things be connected somehow, or is it something I should be worried about?
