7. Bone Broth
Bone broth has been shown to reduce
inflammation and joint pain. The boiled
down cartilage provides beneficial
compounds like chondroitin sulfates
and glucosamine. It also has antiinflammatory and healing amino acids,
such as glycine, proline, and arginine
along with high amounts of calcium,
magnesium, and other nutrients.
The gelatin found in bone broth is a
hydrophilic colloid. It attracts liquids,
including digestive juices, that help to
support proper digestion and elimination.
See the complete Beyond the Basics
Health Academy Bone Broth Recipe.
8. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar is full of
antioxidants and health benefits. It
helps support good bile flow and
digestive enzymes to help digest food
properly. It is extremely beneficial in

promoting good HCl production that
drastically contributes to improve
food digestion and absorption.
Therefore, it can be extremely helpful
to those experiencing heartburn and
indigestion.
9. Lemon
The acid that is in lemon helps to
alkalize the water and works with the
digestive system to enhance proper
function. It also helps you to digest
food and slows digestion when taken
with food. This supports the regulation
of blood sugar and insulin levels.
Therefore, it can help you digest and
absorb food better while decreasing
cravings and appetite.
10. Water
Never forget the importance of good
clean water for digestive health. For
food to be absorbed and eliminated
correctly, water is necessary.
