Digestive Health : Herbal Help With Bloating & Gas

Savory
Poor digestion, gas and bloating affect us all, and there are
plenty of good herbal home remedies that help occasional heartburn.
However, a poor functioning digestive system as a chronic condition is
more serious and needs a holistic approach that concentrates on
causes, not symptoms. Mainstream medicines concentrate on reducing
stomach acid - which relieves the symptoms of heartburn and gas, but
also interferes with the digestive process, not allowing the food we eat
to be converted into energy the body can use. Proton pump
inhibitors are one of the mostly widely used class of drugs in the
country and are cash cows for the drug companies. New studies show they
have far more side effects that previously thought. The effects of poor
digestion go far beyond a stomachache, it can lead to
chronic fatigue,
weight gain,
gastritis and stomach ulcers,
IBS,
diarrhea,
chronic constipation, and a compromised and toxic immune system unable to cope with stress.
