Indigestion Tips

  • Remove irritating stimulants such as alcohol, caffeine, dairy, gluten, refined sugars, artificial sweeteners, processed foods, hydrogenated oils and junk food.
  • Fill the diet with nutrient-dense whole foods.
  • Add high fibre foods, and increase foods with omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Increase intake of probiotics to restore balance of intestinal flora.
  • Supplement with digestive enzymes if necessary.
  • Improve emotional health as stress disturbs the digestive system.
  • Eat small meals, chew food thoroughly, slowly, in a relaxed environment.
  • Drink plenty of water between meals, not with meals.
  • Exercise as this encourages digestion.
