Good morning all! Happy, happy Tuesday! Because the digestive system processes all of the food that enters our system, what you eat affects its function and efficiency. With digestion, it is equally as important to monitor how you eat as it is to monitor what you eat. Fiber is extremely important in digestive functioning, as it maintains regular elimination, which keeps the colon clean, A lack of fiber in the diet may cause bowels to back up, causing pain and discomfort in the short term and contributing to the development of serious disorders like colitis and colon cancer. It is also important not to overload your system by overeating or swallowing too much air, as both put strain on the digestive tract. Overeating affects digestion at every stage, from contributing to acid reflux in the esophagus, to decreasing nutrient absorption and causing constipation or diarrhea in the intestines, Swallowing too much air can cause painful gas and bloating in the stomach and intestines. May your day be terrific, safe and WARM!!
