Very few individuals like to consume or even be around apple cider vinegar due to its strong scent and taste, but it is still high on the list of the most powerful and versatile natural remedies out there. It has the ability to help individuals manage countless conditions, including upset stomachs caused by overeating, eating too fast, or consuming too much fatty or spicy food. Its high acid content helps balance the acid levels in the stomach and uses the method of food fighting food. The acids, as well as enzymes, pectin, and potassium, break down food in the stomach and help eliminate bloating and gas.

As mentioned briefly before, peppermint is quite the powerful stomach soother. It is a standard flavor used in toothpaste and gum, though the former should not be used to cure stomach issues. Its oils are beneficial for alleviating digestive issues like indigestion, gas, as well as irritable bowel syndrome, all of which can contribute to a sore stomach. It can also effectively reduce pain in the abdomen. Peppermint can be taken as a tea, sniffed in its extract form, eaten like candy, or by chewing on the mint leaves.
