Hello,

I believe, the eating the high amount of acidic food (preserved in vinegar) is a first reason......and the second common reason is a bad psychological case.

Our stomach makes hormone called gastrin, that produce hydrochloric acid. When the acid level increase, it can lead to hyperacidity. Excess stomach acidity can range from mild to severe. When the excess stomach acidity goes untreated, it can lead to ulcers. Diet plays a vital role in controlling stomach acidity. There are certain foods that cause stomach acidity. For example;

• Citrus fruits: Oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruit, and pineapple can cause acid build-up. Apples, grapes, bananas, melon, and pear are much better options.
• Vegetables: Most vegetables fit into a low acid diet, but fried, canned, or creamed veggies should be avoided. Some people find that onions and tomato-based products bother them.
• Dairy products: Whole milk, high-fat creams, chocolate milk, and strongly flavored cheeses should be avoided. Low-fat and fat-free products are much safer.
• Grains: Any grains that are made with whole milk or cream.
• Meats: High-fat meats, cold cuts, chicken wings, sausage, bacon, poultry skin, and fried or greasy meats. Skinless chicken and lean beef are better choices.
• Beverages: Alcohol, coffee, mint tea, hot cocoa, and other caffeinated beverages
• Spicy foods: Hot peppers, curry, garlic, and salsa are some examples.
• Fiber: Too much fiber can cause acid production to go into overdrive since it takes a long time for the food to pass through the stomach.
• Ulcers or cancers: Either of these can lead to an increase in the production of the hormone gastrin, which increases acid production.
• Stress: Research shows people who are severely stressed produce more acid in their stomachs.
• Infection: Bacterial infection by the bacterium H. pylori can also increase acid production.
• Irregular meals: Not having meals at a regular time or having long gaps between meals can result in acid accumulation.
• Lack of sleep: This can also increase acid production in some individuals
