Herbs For Digestion - The Best Home Remedies

Digestive problems affect almost all of us. Some people struggle with them on a daily basis, others from time to time, e.g. after hearty and heavy Christmas meals. Heartburn, abdominal pain, gas, constipation, colic, belching, a feeling of heaviness and fullness in the intestines - these unpleasant symptoms can really make everyday functioning difficult. We advise on how to deal with them with home methods. What herbs are good for digestion?

Digestion is a complicated process - it involves not only many structures of the digestive tract, but also organs located outside it, such as the pancreas, liver, bile ducts with the gallbladder. Digestion and metabolic changes are additionally regulated by a number of hormones, enzymes and other substances supporting the course of metabolism in the human body.

There are many factors that influence proper digestion, including:

metabolic rate, i.e. the rate of changes in the body, largely dependent on hereditary tendencies; diet, food quality, menu composition, dietary products that stimulate metabolism (e.g. fiber) or those that hinder digestion (e.g. high saturated fat, highly processed food) fluids, especially the amount of healthy fluids (water, herbal teas, fruit and vegetable juices) consumed each day; physical activity, daily dose of exercise, lifestyle (active or sedentary); accompanying diseases affecting, inter alia, for intestinal peristalsis or the secretion of bile and digestive enzymes.

How To Improve Digestion? 10 home remedies for a good metabolism!

  1. Eat regular meals. Eat less abundant meals, but more frequently, at regular intervals - ideally every 3-4 hours. The body will digest smaller portions of food more easily, moreover, it will develop the so-called metabolic memory - at certain times, the digestive system will release more digestive enzymes.
  2. Eat small portions. More frequent and less hearty meals are one thing. However, there are other ways to reduce the amount of food you eat. Do not put the whole meal on the plate at once (then you will probably eat it all), but in small portions. Finish your meal when you feel your hunger has been satisfied. This way you will avoid overeating.
  3. Bite and shred it thoroughly.Take time to eat your meals in peace, without rushing. The better chewed and shredded food, the easier it is to digest it afterwards.
  4. Eat then drink.Try to drink only after the meal is finished. However, if you have to drink while you go, make sure you swallow your bites first and then sip them. Never drink while chewing!
  5. Keep your body well hydrated. Drink at least 2 liters of healthy fluids every day, including: still water, herbal teas, fresh fruit and vegetable juices, healthy soups, smoothies. Try to drink in small portions, then the fluids will be better absorbed into the body.
  6. Reach for herbs that aid digestion. They not only hydrate the body, but also improve digestive processes.
  7. Eat high-fiber foods. Fiber, or dietary fiber, plays a very important role in the process of moving food in the intestines. It stimulates peristalsis and helps to remove undigested debris remaining in the intestines. Vegetables, fruit with the skin, whole grain products (e.g. wholemeal bread, thick groats, wholemeal pasta), muesli and oatmeal are a rich source of fiber. Foods high in fiber help to avoid constipation and gastrointestinal overflow.
  8. Take care of probiotics in your daily menu. Probiotics are products (e.g. natural yoghurt, buttermilk, kefir, silage) that have a beneficial effect on the intestinal flora, thus not only improving digestion and nutrient absorption, but also strengthening immunity by inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines.
  9. Remember: exercise is good for digestion. Almost every physical activity has a positive effect on metabolism, but in order to "stimulate" the intestines more, it is worth focusing on stretching exercises, yoga, crunches, bends, squats.
  10. Listen to your intestines. Do not suppress the bowel reflex, because it may disappear. for laxative teas, for flatulence - help drain gas from the intestines. When feeling overcrowded, try to eat less food for a few days or cleanse the body of excess food debris.

These types of problems happen to everyone, but you need to react quickly to them to prevent development of more serious diseases.
