TMHS 041: Improve Your Digestion, Assimilation, and Elimination (And Poop Like A Champion!)


Listen Later

In this episode of The Model Health Show we're talking about the all too taboo subject of pooping. It's something that everybody does, but most people never talk about it. Your digestion and colon health are truly important keys to longevity and overall wellness. If you're not eliminating waste properly, it's only a matter of time before a huge problem shows up.

In today's show we're going to cover some critical tips to improve your digestive health and elimination immediately. One of the biggest issues today is not knowing how to poop in the first place (not kidding). We all poop. It's natural. But in our modern society we're trained to poop in a way that's abnormal and can lead to some serious health issues.

From the proper pooping position, to optimal nutrition, to emotional issues surrounding digestion, we've got it all for you right now!
