Restoring normal digestive function...begins with Digest Plus
Good digestion requires:
- Enzymes that should be in our food to breakdown the food.
- Hydrochloric acid (HCL) to breakdown protein, activate our vitamins and minerals, and sanitize our food.
- Time to relax and enjoy the food.
Factors that contribute to poor digestion are:
- lack of enzymes, due to too much processed and cooked foods.
- lack of HCL due to stress....
- when you are stressed your body doesn't produce HCL. Thus your body can't breakdown protein and it is the purtification and rotting of protein that causes most of the digestive problems.
- HIdden food allergen
- For a minimum of two weeks stay away from ALL...dairy, wheat, corn, soy, peanuts, MSG.
- Poor food combinations
- eat your fruits by themselves
- eat protein with fibrous vegetables
- avoid protein with high starchy foods (steak & potato, chicken & rice, shrimp pasta)
- An overgrowth of 'bad' bacteria (yeast, fungus, candida).....usually caused by;
- antibiotics
- birth control pills
- steriod hormones
- a diet high in refined, processed foods
Start with Digest Plus....it's packed with both enzymes and HCL. Remember as we age we produce less enzymes and HCL. This is important especially if you are eating more protein.
90% of all digestive problems are NOT a result of too much acid (Hydorchloric acid -HCL).
Elevated levels of cortisol will erode our intestinal lining and makes us more susceptable to food allergies, yeast/fungus overgrowth and parasites.
Digestive irritation (bloating, gas, heartburn, reflux, irritable bowel, etc.) triggers inflammation, which causes the adrenal glands to produce more cortisol in order to reduce the inflammation.
Can you see how the 'vicious' cycle keeps flowing unless you address all aspects?
It’s easy to get started!
