Answer 2

MILK OF MAGNESIA IS USED FOR HYPER-ACIDITY.

• Milk of magnesia is actually a chemical called MAGNESIUM HYDROXIDE.

• It is a type of alkaline (saline) laxative, hence helps to treat both acidity as well as mild constipation.

• Magnesium hydroxide is an metallic oxide and hence basic in nature. It reacts with the excess acid in stomach and neutralizers them. This relieves the pain and stomach bloating.
