What to do if your gastrointestinal digestion is poor

Poor gastrointestinal digestion ability is mainly caused by problems with the stomach, small intestine or large intestine, which can easily lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, nausea, etc. Poor gastrointestinal digestion ability is not necessarily caused by disease, but it is very harmful to our dietary health and needs to be adjusted in time, otherwise it will easily develop into various gastrointestinal diseases. So, what should we do if our gastrointestinal digestion ability is poor? Let’s take a closer look below.

Drink honey water in the morning and evening. Drinking honey water to regulate the stomach is especially suitable for winter. Drink honey water on an empty stomach in the morning. [Remember that it is best to take it with warm water, which will not easily destroy the ingredients of honey and is beneficial to the absorption of the stomach. 】It is beneficial to strengthen the spleen and stomach, promote bowel movements and improve the internal environment of the stomach and intestines. Similarly, drink it before going to bed at night according to this method.

Eating, that is, regular meals, must be done at a regular basis. Some people get stomach problems because of overeating and overdrinking. A stomach that was originally in good condition is ruined. There is a saying that goes, "The stomach nourishes the person for the first 30 years, and the person nourishes the stomach for the next 30 years." This is a lesson learned from the past. We should not do this. We should eat until we are 80% full. A normal person's stomach cannot bear it if he is 100% full, let alone people with poor stomachs! So you must have a regular diet! ! Eat less or no snacks. Snacks will affect your main meals. Chew slowly when eating to reduce the burden on your stomach and intestines.

Three kinds of porridge for regulating the stomach and intestines: 1. Tomato porridge.

Method: Put glutinous rice in a pot and bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Add the soaked lotus seeds and lily, and cook until it becomes thick. ③Red bean, jujube and glutinous rice porridge. Preparation method: The raw materials are red beans, yam, coix seeds, lotus seeds, jujube and glutinous rice.

If you find it troublesome to make porridge, I will teach you a convenient way: buy dried hawthorn or sun-dried hawthorn and soak it in water to drink. If it is dried hawthorn, it is best to cut it before soaking.

Massage regulates the stomach and intestines. Massaging the abdomen can promote digestion and absorption. Do it once in the morning and once in the evening every day.

Method: Lie flat on your back with your five fingers together. First, use your right hand to massage your abdomen with the belly button as the center, starting from a small area and then moving on to a large area. Use light techniques at first and then heavy, slow at first and then fast. Massage your abdomen around the belly button in a clockwise direction for one hundred circles. More than one hundred circles is better. Similarly, use your left hand to massage your abdomen in the opposite direction for 100 circles, until your belly becomes red and warm. It is best to drink a bowl of warm water before massaging your abdomen in the morning, and then increase the number of abdominal massage circles to one hundred. Since abdominal massage can promote digestion and absorption of the gastrointestinal tract, long-term persistence will definitely produce good results.

Food taboos: People with poor stomachs should not eat or eat less high-fat, high-sugar, spicy, fried foods [onions, ginger, garlic, peppers, meat] and non-leavened pasta [as opposed to unleavened pasta]. Eat more foods such as carbohydrates [grains, fruits, beans, nuts, and root vegetables]. If you do this in your daily life, your stomach will feel much more comfortable.

Strengthen physical exercise. When your physical fitness improves, the entire digestive and circulatory system in the body will also improve. They complement each other. If there are other problems, the stomach and intestines will not be any better, right? If everything else is good, your stomach and intestines will be good too! That's the principle. How to exercise depends on your own situation.
