Good digestion , the immunity glove for winter !
Poor digestion can cause more than stomach discomfort ! Chronic fatigue , premature ageing , arthritis , poor skin , dull and limp hair , toxicity , allergies , cancer , and many other diseases can be a consequence of inadequate digestion .
Poor digestion results in the body ’ s inability to breakdown food and absorb nutrients , this leads to an accumulation of toxins which results in general health and immunity decline .
Elizabeth Lipski , C . C . N ., author of Digestive Wellness says that the best diet in the world won ’ t help if you aren ’ t digesting your food properly .
Digestion is the engine room of the body itself , and paramount to the body ’ s immune system . The purpose of the gastrointestinal system is to break food down small enough to be absorbed in the form of nutrients , vitamins , minerals and antioxidants which build and fuel our organs and bodily functions , strengthen our immunity and eliminate waste products and toxins .
The most crucial area in the body with regard to general immunity lies in the digestive tract . The lining of the intestine has the largest mass of lymphoid tissue .
Gut-associated lymphoid tissue or GALT is made up of several types of lymphoid tissue that store immune cells that both attack and defend the body from pathogens . Because GALT is the largest lymph system in the human body , the digestive tract has the most profound effect of all the internal organs on overall immunity .
Symptoms of poor digestion may include abdominal pain , allergic symptoms , belching , feeling bloated , a burning sensation after eating , chronic bowel irritation , chronic fatigue , constipation , diarrhoea , gas , rumbling noises , insomnia , joint and muscle pain , nausea , skin disorders , sugar cravings , and vomiting .
The Other Option ’ s DIGESTIVE REMEDY Siberian Pine Nut Oil naturally stimulates the release of digestive hormones which boost digestion and increase the absorption of nutrients . Additionally The Other Option ’ s DIGESTIVE REMEDY Siberian Pine Nut Oil is a natural anti-inflammatory which strengthens and heals the inflamed or ulcerated lining of the oesophagus , stomach and digestive tract , all of which are factors that inhibit digestion further .
