Blog post 2 – Happy digestion series

Many people with digestive issues assume they have food intolerances and remove these foods from their diet. While this can alleviate some of the symptoms, it may not address the cause. Digestive issues can be simply a sign that your digestive system is struggling to cope due to the poor eating habits that come from having a busy life.

So try implementing a few simple changes and see if this helps…

  1. Avoid fluids around meal times. Fluids dilute the digestive juices and make them less efficient at breaking down our food.

  2. Chew, chew, and chew some more. We don’t have any more teeth down our digestive tract so you only get one chance to break your food down well enough for it to be digested. You need to puree your food with your teeth before you swallow it.

  3. Chew slowly and pause between mouthfuls. This not only aids digestion but also gives your brain the opportunity to tell you when your body is full.
