Supplements for Digestion and Gastro-Intestinal Health can become a cornerstone of your wellness, since it’s in the stomach where food is converted into energy and strong immunity stems comes from. Lack of dietary fibre, digestive enzymes and helpful bacteria can cause various problems: a relevant supplement may become a mild yet efficient solution for tummy comfort and overall well-being.
How can supplements help my digestion and gastro-intestinal health?
Different types of digestion related supplements are aimed to help you to achieve different goals. Depending on the type these can:
- Increase daily fibre intake
Dietary fibre is essential for the formation of soft stools and its easy passage through the intestine. Lack of it may cause constipation and other unpleasant conditions. In case you don’t consume enough fibre through your food, supplements like Inulin are a good option.
- Maintain healthy gut flora
Gut wellness is greatly conditioned by the ratio of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bacteria in your stomach. Prebiotic supplements support healthy bacteria growth, while Probiotics contain the ready-to-work bacteria for food processing.
- Help digest certain types of food
Some people may have problems with depleting beans, legumes and dairy products. However, this is not a reason to give up on them. Taking certain enzymes can make up for it and prevent any possible discomfort like excessive gas, bloating and heaviness.
When should I take supplements for digestion?
The general answer is: when you feel your stomach needs an extra support. For example when:
- You don’t consume enough fruit, vegetable and grains, as natural sources of fibre;
- It’s hard for your organism to digest certain types of food;
- You experience bacterial disbalance due to food poisoning, antibiotics intake or for some other reason;
- Your diet lacks probiotics foods like yogurts, miso and kefir.
