8 Easy Tips For Healthy Digestive System

How to Improve Digestive System?

Digestion is the process by which the food we eat breaks down into essential nutrients that our body needs. Almost 70 per cent of the immune system dwells in the digestive tract. So, according to doctors, for overall well-being, it is very important to maintain digestive health.

However, due to poor eating habits and mounting stress levels, patients with unhealthy digestive systems are increasing in hospitals in Noida. They generally complain of stomach ache which needs emergency treatment. Digestive imbalance can also result in ailments like allergies, autoimmune disease, low energy, depression, compromised immunity, acne, arthritis, psoriasis and autism.

So, it is necessary to have a healthy digestive system. But it does not mean giving up on your favourite comfort food. According to one of the best hospitals in Noida, Yatharth Wellness, here are a few easy tips which can help you improve your digestive health.

1. Opt For Fiber Rich Diet

A high-fibre diet helps the food to keep moving on through the digestive tract, thus reducing the chances of constipation. It also helps in treating various digestive problems like haemorrhoids, diverticulosis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Along with this it also helps in maintaining a healthy weight. So one should include fibre-rich food like fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains in their diet.

2. Reduce Fat Intake

Fatty foods slow down the digestion process, increasing the chances of constipation. Doctors suggest that some fats can be included in the diet along with fibre-rich food.

3. Choose Lean Meats

Meat is an important source of protein - an essential nutrient for the body. However, meats also contain fatty cuts which are difficult to digest. It is always better to opt for lean cuts like skinless poultry.

4. Drink Plenty of Water

Keep yourself hydrated as its aids digestion. If a person is slightly dehydrated, his/ her digestive system slows down and further results in constipation. Water also helps in passing the stool easily.

5. Cut Down Excessive Smoking and Drinking

Drinking alcohol, coffee and smoking cigarettes are the root cause of problems like stomach ulcers and heatburn. It also affects the proper functioning of the digestive system. So, it recommended to cut down excessive intake of alcohol and cigarettes.

6. Exercise Regularly

For the smooth functioning of the digestive system, it is necessary to exercise daily. Exercising, apart from reducing constipation also helps in maintaining a healthy weight, which is again beneficial for a healthy digestive system.

7. Avoid Artificial Sweetener

Artificial sweeteners, high-sugar meal or drinks instantly shoots up the insulin level which further aggravates the problems like high blood pressure, fatigue and hunger. Artificial sweetners also causes diarrhoea, as it does not get digested easily.

8. Eat Well on Time
