INDIGESTION

Natural Solutions for Indigestion

BY SALLY KARLOVITZ, CN

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE MORE than 50 million Americans who suffers from digestive disorders, enjoying a family meal can become uncomfortable. Problems associated with the digestive tract can include indigestion, heartburn, gas, bloating, and constipation. Instead of reaching for an over-the-counter remedy that just temporarily eases symptoms, try these natural approaches to ease digestive symptoms and support the GI tract.

SLOW DOWN

Take time to chew your food, which is the first step in digestion. This is a great time to truly savor the food and enjoy the company you’re with.

GET QUICK RELIEF WITH CALCIUM

For those times when you do have a heartburn flare-up, calcium carbonate can help neutralize the acid and give quick relief. This mineral is effective for buffering the acid in the stomach and reducing irritation. In addition, calcium will not interfere with normal, essential gastric acid secretion like over-the-counter medications do.

TAKE A MULTI-PURPOSE DIGESTIVE ENZYME

Our bodies produce enzymes that break down fats, carbohydrates, and protein. As we age, these enzyme levels decline, leading to more problems with excess gas and indigestion. Enzyme supplements help by adding to the enzymes being produced in the body, improving digestion and reducing heartburn and bloating.

SOOTHE AND PROTECT THE GI TRACT

Alginate, a compound from brown seaweed, creates a gel that sits on top of the “acid pocket” of the stomach. This preserves natural gastric acids, which are critical for digestion, but also aids in blocking the stomach contents from entering the esophagus.* Prickly pear cactus acts as a natural buffering agent to neutralize stomach acids. It also helps to amplify the benefits of alginate. Fenugreek is mucilaginous herb that provides soothing benefits to the digestive tract, helping to reduce inflammation and calm irritation.

Don’t suffer with digestive discomfort. Try a natural remedy to improve digestion, reduce unwanted symptoms, and enjoy your favorite meals.
