The Basics of Poor Digestion
Digestion is the process by which your body breaks down the food, absorbs the components of the food, and then eliminates unusable or waste material material. Any breakdown in this system can create problems for the body. Possible symptoms of poor digestion are bloating, constipation, diarrhea, cramping, weigh gain, heartburn (or acid reflux) and loss of appetite. Other symptoms less well known caused by poor digestion are arthritis, skin problems, and allergies.
How does it start?
Eating the wrong food for your body is usually the start of digestive symptoms. Many people develop digestive problems from eating foods that they have sensitivities to, as well as eating refined sugar and other processed foods. The chemicalization of our food is a big culprit.Other potential causes are a history of heavy antibiotic use, exposure to toxins, hormonal imbalance or infection with parasites or other microbes.
When should I see an Autonomic Response Testing practitioner?
There’s several reasons why someone may experience poor digestion. If you are having symptoms, the next step is to find out what factor, or combination of factors may be causing your distress.
