HEALTH WATCH
above is the easiest way to detect
the problem.
An effective solution for digestive
upsets is Digestive Enzymes.
Enzymes are naturally occurring in
the mouth, small intestine, liver
and pancreas and work by helping
us break down our food as we eat.
Supplementing with digestive
enzymes 30 minutes before or
during every meal will enhance
your nutrient absorption levels.
This will in turn give you more
physical
energy,
eliminate
tiredness after a meal, regulate
your bowel movements and most
of all, get rid of gas, belching and
bloating experienced after a meal.
Supplementing with enzymes also
takes a lot of burden from the liver
so it is able to strengthen itself and
focus on other tasks in the body.
GAS, BELCHING
AND BLOATING
Solutions to Digestive
Dilemmas

T
he digestive system is a
unique
and
delicate
environment that governs about
80% of our immunity. Good
bacteria in our gut, along with
proper enzyme secretion and a
balanced diet, are all vital factors
for an optimally functioning
digestive system. When we begin
to have frequent bouts of gas,
belching and bloating, it is a signal
that our gut health is imbalanced
and needs some attention.
Causes of these symptoms
include stress, a high sugar diet,
and
frequent
use
of
pharmaceutical or recreational
drugs, enzyme depletion, alcohol,
constipation, poor food combining,
poor chewing habits and unknown
food allergies or sensitivities.
Being aware of our body’s reaction
when we consume any of the
Pineapples and Papayas have the
highest enzyme content, and can
be found in the Health Food Store
under the names Papain and
Bromelain. If you have had your
gallbladder removed then be sure
to purchase an enzyme that
contains OxBile so you are able to
break down fatty foods more
efficiently. Enzyme brands that I
like to take include Enzymedica,
Natren and Now and New Roots.
Other tips to ensure proper
digestive health are: Chew on
fennel seeds as it helps eliminate
gas; do not drink anything while
you are eating or 20 minutes
afterwards; eat more fermented
foods; Chew your food thoroughly;
Go to your family doctor for allergy
testing;
Supplement
with
Probiotics; Follow the Food
Combining Guide. Be sure to
