If you’re looking to improve your digestion immediately without a total diet overhaul, here are the
TOP 6 ways👇
1️⃣Slow down when you eat.
👉By eating too fast and not breaking our food apart properly, we end up swallowing big pieces
which get to our small intestines and gather bad bacteria and yeast and not accessing the
nutrients within our food
2️⃣Be aware of what you’re doing while eating.
👉What’s the problem with watching TV or playing with your phone whilst eating? When we’re
distracted, our blood is diverted from our digestion to our outer limbs and our bodies become
immersed into the programme we are watching rather than the food we are eating.
3️⃣Try not to eat too much.
👉By eating a little too much your digestive system has to work overtime, causing a spike in blood sugar, an upset stomach, and feelings of lethargy. You could try eating little but often to
combat this.
4️⃣Be aware of what times you eat.
👉Eating late at night has been linked to many gastric issues, caused due to poorly digested food which may cause excessive acid in the stomach. Pay attention to your body cues such as
your stomach growling, in order to correctly determine if you are actually hungry.
5️⃣Be aware of your feelings towards the food you’re eating.
👉Research has proven that feeling guilty or negative towards the foods you eat can effectively discourage metabolic activity, slow digestion and cause your body to store more calories as fat
rather than burning them as energy.
6️⃣Cut down on raw foods.
👉Raw foods are much harder to digest than cooked foods, so if you’re suffering from digestive issues such as diarrhea, bloating or acid reflux, eating cooked food can help support your
digestion..
