An Integrative Approach to Digestive Health

Many health professionals believe that digestion is the path to overall good health.  A healthy gut allows for increased energy, an optimum immune system, and optimum wellness.  So it is no surprise that people are concerned about the proper absorption and use of the food they take in and are searching for digestive problem relief and guidance for GI relief.

The Search for Digestive Problem Relief

Americans spent over $50 million on over-the-counter products to alleviate their stomach ailments including heartburn, bloating, acid reflux, diarrhea, constipation, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

While these products may deliver aid for symptom relief, they do not really treat the underlying causes of digestive issues. As a result, there is a never-ending cycle of seeking gastrointestinal (GI) relief and trying to treat the actual problems that create that sluggish and lethargic feeling.

Answers for Digestive Problem Relief

While some forms of digestive issues may require advanced medical attention and prescriptions, many of these situations can be handled with a change in dietary habits. Eating a healthy balanced diet with proper nutrition can go a long way to supporting optimum health and a feeling of rejuvenation.

For example, consuming large amounts of fiber and low amounts of sugar is beneficial to optimal gastrointestinal functioning.

But Wait, There’s More

Another great way to help with digestion is chiropractic care.

Chiropractors undergo extensive training to help their patients in ways beyond just treatment for low-back pain. They know how tension in the spine relates to problems in other parts of the body, and they will take steps to relieve those problems. 

Chiropractic care has been shown to reduce inflammation in the body and promote healing. In published studies, misalignment of certain parts of the spine has also been shown to prevent proper digestion and lead to such ailments as IBS. Getting proper care from a chiropractor may help to ease digestive symptoms and get you moving again.
