Stomach acid is Hydrochloric acid. Antacid remedies are alkaline-based. Adding an alkaline to an acid reduces the strength of the acid. In the case of indigestion - this reduces the discomfort caused by excess acid production.

Antacid molecules dissociate in the stomach into some R+ group and an OH- group (hydroxide). The hydroxide reacts with an H3O+ ion (hydronium) to form two H2O molecules. The reduction in H3O+ concentration corresponds to increased pH (decreased acidity). 1) ROH -> R+ + OH- 2) OH- + H3O+ -> 2H2O pH = -ln([H3O+])/ln(10)
The stomach naturally has an acidic pH because of the gastric acids which help you break down food and kill bacteria. The body tries to maintain this pH which is around 2.0-3.0 but sometimes this pH can change due to various conditions and stress. You can attempt to balance high acidity by consuming something basic. Antacids like Tums can help. Maintaining a balanced diet is essential for proper bodily functions especially the GI tract.
