There’s almost nothing better for your digestive system and your overall health than water. Just like not eating enough fiber, drinking too little water slows down your digestive system significantly because a harder stool is more difficult to pass. Drink plenty of water and other fluids like green tea, fresh juices especially after you exercise. Stay hydrated. You'll know when you're getting enough water when your pee is clear all day long.
Studies show that even small weight gains are linked to GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease or acid reflux ), a condition in which the valve between the stomach and esophagus doesn’t close completely, allowing stomach acid back into the esophagus. Losing even a few pounds eases some of the pressure in your abdominal area and can help reduce heartburn and other discomfort. Hence always maintain a healthy weight.
Nobody likes to be rushed, and your digestive system is no exception. It takes a little time before your body sends the signal to your brain that you’ve eaten enough. Therefore do not eat on the run. Slow down, sit and eat. Chew each bite at least 20 times. That gives your stomach plenty of time to prepare to properly digest the nutrients you are giving it, and allows your body and brain to tell you when you’ve had enough.
Intestinal bacteria produce gas when foods haven’t yet travelled through the small intestine. If gas particles aren’t released right away, the stomach expands like a balloon. Although overeating is the most known cause for bloating, some people battle the bloat daily – even if they haven’t eaten a large meal. If this sounds like you, the triggers may not be how much you’re eating, but what you’re eating. Try to limit your consumption of sodium, starches and artificial sweeteners as they are common culprits. Bloating can also be the sign of a serious health problem. Consult your doctor, if the problem persists.
