Answer:
We know that indigestion is caused because of over flow of Hydrochloric acid (HCl) in our stomach. It is due to overeating and many reasons. We also know that when an acid is mixed with a base, the base neutralizes the effect of the acid. So, indigestion can be treated by base. The base used for treating it is Magnesium hydroxide in the form of Milk of Magnesia. It can be also treated by sodium hydrogencarbonate (Baking Soda).
