Digestion

Digestion is the process by which foods are broken down so the nutrients can be absorbed and used for energy in the body and to build and repair the cells and tissues. Digestive imbalances may result in indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulence (gas), nausea, and weak digestion (sluggish and slow). In cases such as heartburn or indigestion ... Stomach troubles arise from eating and drinking harmful foods, wrong combinations of foods, eating fruits and vegetables together, milk and cane sugar together, pies, cakes, white flour products, greasy and fried foods, taking too much fluid with meals, and poor mastication.

No matter what or how much you eat, if it is not properly masticated it will not digest properly. Drinking with meals will dilute digestive juices so that they cannot do their work properly. Ice cold drinks are especially harmful, because they chill the stomach as well as dilute the digestive juices. Bitter herbs and foods help to stimulate the digestive process and demulcent herbs help to soothe the digestive tract.

" Digestive problems cost Americans more than $100 billion dollars annually. That is more money than we spend on books, movies, music and videos combined ($82 billion); it is more money that we spend on automobiles (%65 billion); it is more money than we spend on vacations ($10 billion); it is more money than we spent on higher education or computers ($62 billion); it is even more money than we spend on weight loss ($33 billion)! What is more interesting is how we allocate expenditures on digestive care: - $25 billion on phisician visits - $21 billion on medical procedures - $10 billion on prescription medications - $3 billion on over-the-counter medications - $0.3 billion on dietary supplements..."
