Importance of drinking water.
Enough water intake prevents constipation, indigestion and other problems of the gastrointestinal tract. Lack of fluids in the body makes stools tight and it tends to pull water from the colon resulting in constipation. Proper hydration improves digestion and allows maximum nutrient absorption in the blood.

The importance of drinking water.

It is important to drink clean water every day, that has not had anything added to it. Very few people drink enough water. Drinks like tea coffee actually are diuretic in effect, and cause the body to lose water.

We need to drink between 1.5 - 2Litres of water a day away from food. Water is best drunk between meals. At lease 15 minutes before eating, and at least 1 hour after. Drinking water while eating dilutes the digestive juices and may prevent proper digestion from taking place.

How to improve your gut microbiome:

Try to eat 30 different types of fruit, veg, nuts and seeds a week. As advised by Professor Tim Spector

I know when I first read this I thought there is no way I can do that but then I counted up all the various types of fruit, veg, nuts and seeds. I was amazed that I had managed 27 and I still had 3 days left in that week. If you have say peppers but 3 different colours that counts as 3 as each colour will contain different nutrients.
