Relieve Digestive Issues Naturally | Maryline Hourlier
Digestive disorders are among the most common complaints. Bloating, constipation, reflux... these ailments often find effective solutions in nature.
Digestive Essential Oils
- Exotic Basil: a powerful antispasmodic, quickly relieves cramps and intestinal spasms when massaged in circular motions on the abdomen
- Peppermint: stimulates bile secretion, effective against nausea and acid reflux
- Ginger: a natural carminative, remarkably reduces bloating
Digestive Plants
Licorice protects the gastric mucosa against reflux. Artichoke and black radish stimulate bile production. Blond psyllium gently regulates transit.
The Gut Microbiota, Key to Digestion
70% of our immunity resides in the gut. Probiotics (yogurt, kefir, kombucha, sauerkraut) and prebiotics (leek, garlic, onion, Jerusalem artichoke) nourish and diversify the intestinal flora.
Daily Habits
Chewing slowly (20 to 30 times per bite) and walking 15 minutes after meals: the two simplest and most effective actions for optimal digestion.
