7: How digestion should work, surprising signs that tell what's going wrong + tips on how to fix it


Listen Later

Today's topic is digestion. Most people don't think about what happens when food goes in your mouth. We don't just eat because it tastes good and then it comes out the other end. Digestion is an intricate process and proper digestion is so essential for optimal health. But digestion is not one process. There are so many steps in the digestive process and if just one thing goes wrong, it will negatively affect every step that follows.

Digestion is a root cause of so many issues so it's essential that we learn to recognize the signs of when our body is not digesting adequately. In this episode, I list common symptoms associated with issues in the digestive process and give tips on how to try to fix it.
