Signs You Need to Improve Your Digestion
When
you ate breakfast or lunch today, how did your stomach feel afterwards? Would
you consider yourself to be someone with a strong stomach? Are you prone to
stomach aches and heartburn? If any of
these questions seem familiar to you, or you’ve experienced them on some level,
then you probably have some digestion issues. If you’ve been wondering if you
need to speak to a professional about your digestive health, then you might
want to see if you come across any signs that you need to improve your digestion
in the following article.
Your Breath Smells
When most people notice that someone has bad breath, their first reaction might be
to pull back and avoid the subject but telling someone that they have bad
breath could be life changing for them because bad breath is often a sign of
much more important issues. Many people who have bad breath simply have
digestive problems that they haven’t become aware of yet. Paying close
attention to when your breath smells can also give you an indication of what’s
triggering it specifically.
You’re Tired After Meals
Do
you feel energized and lively after meals, or tired and lethargic? How you feel
after dinner can say a lot about the state of your digestive health. Sometimes
it can be as simple as needing to have more fiber in your diet, but one major
issue that people have is a clogged and plaque filled large intestine. These
buildups of waste can prevent your body from absorbing the vital nutrients that
it needs to stay healthy and alive. This could also become more serious when
the weight of trapped material begins to cause internal injury to your
intestinal lining.
Adult Skin Issues
So,
a pimple suddenly rises on your cheek. Then a few days later another, and
another. Is this just adult acne? Well, it’s possible, but it’s a fairly common
thing for people with digestive problems to have skin issues. Many skin issues
begin in the gut, because the bacteria that often causes acne only comes about
due to a heavy presence of the good bacteria that fights to keep your body
healthy and your skin free of bacterial colonies. If you are sure to get enough
good bacteria to fight the bad, then your skin should naturally clear up a
bit.
