5 tips to facilitate digestion
The modern lifestyle, stress, work, lunch breaks on the go... The deviations and hassles of everyday life have an impact on digestion.
Here are 5 simple and effective tips to follow to facilitate digestion and regain digestive well-being:
1. Have a healthy and balanced diet
It's no longer a secret, the most effective way to prevent digestive pain is to eat well and take your meals at regular times.
To better digest, it is recommended to include foods rich in fiber because it promotes good digestion by helping to eliminate waste accumulated in the body. They also help reduce the risk of colon cancer, reduce blood cholesterol levels and control blood sugar levels.
The foods to favor are cooked vegetables, whole grains (bread, pasta and whole grain cereals, etc.) and legumes (beans, weights, lentils, etc.)
Certain foods such as alcohol, tobacco, spicy or fatty products, chocolate, caffeine and processed products should be avoided because they can cause difficult digestion. They are very often the cause of more or less intense stomach aches, bloating, flatulence and gastric reflux.
2. Chew well
Chewing is essential to facilitate digestion. When you are eating, it moistens the food and reduces its size so that it can be swallowed.
By chewing food sufficiently, the body has less difficulty assimilating it because it will have to secrete less gastric juices, often responsible for burning sensations in the stomach. Chewing well also stimulates salivary impregnation, which also contributes to better digestion.
In addition to helping to digest better, chewing develops flavors and allows you to enjoy food with pleasure. Sensors, present in the upper part of the digestive tract (mouth, esophagus and stomach), inform the brain of the contents of meals.
3. Massage your stomach
To improve digestion and relieve digestive spasms, performing a circular massage on the stomach is a very effective solution. Using the flat of the hand, start by massaging the upper stomach, go down below the sternum to stimulate the stomach and finish at the level of the navel to target the large intestine. The massage can be carried out after eating with a vegetable oil or a few drops of essential oil which promote the functioning of the digestive system, such as ginger essential oil for example.
4. Move
In case of difficult digestion or after a heavy meal, it is not recommended to lie down. The best remedy is to move to activate the body and particularly the stomach. Be careful, however, running after eating a meal is not indicated for better digestion; the simple fact of standing and taking an active walk is enough to stimulate the stomach and facilitate intestinal transit .
5. Drink water
In addition to eating well, it is necessary to hydrate well and drink plenty of water throughout the day. In fact, this helps facilitate the absorption and transport of ingested nutrients and eliminates waste from digestion and various metabolic processes. Health professionals recommend drinking at least 1.5L of water per day.
To improve the taste of the water, and vary the pleasures, you can also use herbal teas and other herbal infusions . These drinks allow you to enjoy the flavors and properties of certain plants used in infusion.
Mint, peppermint, chamomile, anise, lemon balm , fennel and even thyme are among the best plants that help to digest better and soothe digestive spasms. They can be consumed after a meal one to three times a day, alone or in synergy.
