Answer:

Our stomach produces HCl. It helps in the digestion of food without harming the stomach.

During indigestion, the stomach produces too much acid and this causes pain and irritation.

To get rid of this pain, people use bases called antacids.

These antacids neutralize the excess acid in the stomach.

Magnesium hydroxide (milk of magnesia), a mild base is often used for this purpose.

pH plays an very important role in our digestive system.

  • in our oesophyrangyal part like as mouth, pharynx and oesophagus pH is generally about 6.8 which is slightly acidic, due to this reason some enzymes works properly in mouth like as ( amylase).
