Digestive health is the foundation for good health.
Ensuring you have variety in your diet, a healthy balance of fat, complex carbohydrates and quality protein in amounts that support your activity levels and your dietary needs is a great start.
The next step is being to sure your digestive system is functioning optimally so that you can break down the foods you eat and absorb the nutrients from your food.
Some signs that your digestive system is not functioning optimally include but are not limited to: bloating, irregular bowel movements, acid reflux and nausea.
