In today’s day and age, with the advent of fast food, sodas, take-aways and instant dinners, it is hardly a surprise that our digestive processes are not as efficient as they used to be. Traditionally, diet mainly consisted of fruits and vegetables with high fiber content. Grains made a major part of the food portion and people ate comparatively healthier. Today, fatty and oily food laden with sugars is the norm. Hence, digestive complaints such as constipation, irregular bowel habits, acidity, flatulence, heartburn and nausea are extremely common. Fortunately, one has the gift of homeopathic medicine for digestion problems.

 

While these complaints generally point towards a weak digestive system, sometimes they may be vague symptoms of something more sinister occurring internally. Liver disease with fatty infiltration is a very frequently occurring pathology. Gall bladder disease with stone formation is also a noteworthy condition. Irritable bowel syndrome is a gastric disorder directly correlated with modern sedentary lifestyle and high levels of stress. Cancer of the gastrointestinal tract also manifests as change in bowel habits. Symptoms of gastric disease are often ignored by people as they are generally vague and non-specific. People assume themselves to be simply suffering from ‘indigestion’ even though the actual picture may be much more serious. This results in masking of the problem wherein a person keeps suffering abdominal discomfort and digestive troubles while the disease continues rampaging the body internally. Eventually after being triggered by some adverse factor the condition flares up and then medical opinion is sought. Thus, the disease which could have been easily curable is diagnosed at a much later and worse state. That is why it is suggested that if you find yourself suffering from continued gastric disturbances and persistent indigestion, you should certainly seek medical opinion. The physician will help diagnose your problem with appropriate tests and also advise about which medicine is best for digestion problems in your case.

 

Certain diagnostic techniques are employed to learn about the status of pathology in the gastrointestinal tract. Blood counts are basic and give a general idea of one’s health, they also indicate the presence of an infection. Lipid profiles help in establishing the efficacy of fat digestion and metabolism. Liver function tests are essential to know the state of metabolic processes and they provide an idea about the type of pathology present. An ultrasonography, or ultrasound scan, is essential as it helps to visualize most of the gastrointestinal tract organs. Conditions like gall stones, fatty infiltration of liver, intestinal distension etc are clearly visible through ultrasound. Endoscopy and colonoscopy may be required to know the status of esophagus and colon respectively. Biopsy of specific organs are conducted if pathology in any specific organ is noted. Not all investigations however may be required for everyone, and generally your physician would judge best what tests you need in your specific case.

 

Medicine for digestion problem is only needed when extreme circumstances have occurred. It is imperative to develop a healthy digestive system since a young age so that digestive medicine may be avoided altogether. Children should be encouraged to take fruits daily. A minimum of two liters of water a day is a must. Water helps flush out the toxins from the body. Intake of junk food and fatty food should be kept to a minimum, say once a week. Food items such as papaya, bananas, avocado, oats, carrots, yoghurt, cucumber, ginger and lemon water are all digestion-friendly foods that can be safely included in diet to enhance digestive processes.

 

Healthy eating habits are essential. A set routine should be followed as it enhances not only good digestion but also the general well-being of the body. One must not rest immediately after a heavy dinner but take a relaxed walk. There should not be long gaps between meals, nor is indiscriminate eating without rest encouraged. Sipping water between meals is not recommended. Breakfast should never be skipped either. It is a good idea to keep diverse meals and have a well-balanced diet. Midnight munching is generally harmful. Extra calories are needed in childhood, puberty, pregnancy and lactation and they should be provided in a healthy manner.

 

Developing healthy eating habits at early age prevents the eventual requirement of a medicine for digestive disorders. Regular exercise also helps tone up digestive organs. Sleep habits must also be healthy, an adequate amount of sleep gives the body ample time to carry out digestive processes uninterrupted. Stress management is also essential, a stressed body is an unhealthy body. High amounts of stress inhibit digestive processes as the body is focused solely on tackling the stress factor. In such circumstances, digestive operations take a backseat.
