DIGESTIVE ISSUES

Digestive issues, such as heartburn, stomach pain, ulcers, constipation, reflux and he like, are growing at an alarming rate. In fact, it’s safe to say that you may suffer or, at least, know someone who suffers from some form of digestive problems.

The effects of digestive dysfunction are not only uncomfortable or painful, but can also lead to bloating, inability to remove toxins from the body, esophagus damage, and reduced nutritional absorption – among other long-term ill health effects.

Although there are numerous causes of digestive issues, sometimes a nutritional deficiency is at the root of the problem. When there is not enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach the foods tends to rot or putrefy rather than digest properly, producing acid and gas.

Medications can give short-term relief, but the problem still exists. And these medications can further disrupt nutritional uptake, causing other health issues. Another cause of digestive issues is a lack of good intestinal flora, which is needed to digest food. Your body relies on this good flora to do the digestion. Constipation is often associated with a lack of flora.

If you suffer from any digestive issue or any health issue the first thing you must ask yourself is “How is this issue affecting my life?” “Am I irritable, bloated, short-tempered with my spouse or children, is it tough getting through the day at work?” “What will happen if this situation continue for any length of time?”
