Question
Many people suffer from gastrointestinal problems. Over the past two years, I’ve noticed that many of my relatives have also been affected, but it’s mostly treatable with no major issues. Everyone is quite optimistic, yet there’s still some concern. I’m looking for assistance on how to maintain gastrointestinal health in daily life?
Answer
Increase the frequency of bowel movements Although everyone is accustomed to the pattern of bowel movements after three meals a day, the true path to health is to eat small meals more frequently. This prevents people from overeating during meals, which can lead to the gastrointestinal system not being able to absorb enough. Avoiding immediate naps after bowel movements is not only one of the main causes of obesity but also quite likely to trigger symptoms of indigestion. So, if you find it hard to resist the call of sleep right after eating, it’s advisable to hold on a bit longer.
