How to eat
While what you eat can undoubtedly support good gut health, how you eat is very important too. It’s easy to eat too much, too quickly if you’re not paying attention, which can cause bloating, gas and indigestion.
Be mindful when you are eating
Take the time to slow down, cut out distractions and focus on your meal, and make sure you chew your food thoroughly.
Digestion starts in your mouth and taking the time to chew properly can make the whole digestive process run more smoothly – it has also been shown to reduce stress, which can further improve digestion. Happy eating!
