DIGESTION
All the food we eat must first be broken down into its smallest components in order to be utilised by the body. This process is carried out by digestive enzymes that are produced in the saliva, stomach, liver and pancreas. If too few of these enzymes are produced, digestion is suboptimal and problems are inevitable.

Anti-bloating spices
Spices such as caraway, fennel or aniseed stimulate intestinal activity and can prevent flatulence.
Bitter substances
Wormwood, mugwort, dandelion, etc. contain bitter substances. These bitter substances stimulate the production of digestive enzymes. Try to eat foods containing bitter substances either in spice form or as vegetables.
Fibre promotes intestinal health
Regularly include fibre such as whole grains, psyllium husks or Jerusalem artichokes (rich in inulin) in your diet. These fibres support the bowel movement and also form the basis for the right intestinal bacteria cultures.
Fermented foods
Fermented foods such as sauerkraut, yoghurt and kimchi naturally contain lactic acid bacteria. These are exactly the bacteria that we need for our digestion.
Warm lemon water in the morning
After getting up, drink warm water with lemon to stimulate the bowels. Then reward yourself with a healthy breakfast.
