Digestion is one of the most essential functions in our body. According to the National Institutes of Health, your digestive system is responsible for breaking nutrients into smaller parts that your body can absorb and then be used for cell repair, growth, and energy. “The small intestine absorbs most of the nutrients in your food, and your circulatory system passes them on to other parts of your body to store or use. Special cells help absorbed nutrients cross the intestinal lining into your bloodstream.” From there, your blood takes over carrying sugars, amino acids, glycerol and vitamins to your liver, where it stores, processes, and delivers nutrients anywhere your body needs it. In short, it’s important to ensure your gastrointestinal tract is working smoothly.
Tips for Healthy Digestion
Most tips for better digestion are simple practices you can easily incorporate into your daily routine.
- Eat real food. Processed items are harder for the body to digest, so stick to real, whole foods whenever possible.
- Add soluble fiber. Found in ingredients like oats, bananas, apples, and black beans, soluble fiber may help you maintain regular bowel movements.
- Eat foods with probiotics. Whether you take a daily supplement or reach for ingredients such as kimchi, apple cider vinegar, yogurt, and sauerkraut, probiotics can have a positive effect on your GI tract.
