Steps advised in Treatment of Digestive Sytem :
- The first step is to regulate the diet. Where it is necessary take an enema with a suitable herbal tea, or with warm water. Do this every evening for a few days. An enema with herbal tea that is a disinfectant and stimulant can bring back the peristaltic action of the colon.
- Eat without drinking water. It has been noted that if food is eaten dry and thoroughly saturated with saliva, it is a wonderful help to lubricate the bowels. It will make the system alkaline and will greatly increase the rapidity of digestion. How true this is can be confirmed by those who make the effort to chew their food well, do not hurry over it and will not drink water till 30 minutes to one hour after their meals. No liquids of any kind should be taken with meals. The period of not drinking water after meals should be extended to from one hour to two hours. This way the various digestive juices would have had time to work, undiluted, on the food before the liquid is taken, to push down the digested food through the colon.
- Eat freely fresh fruits such as oranges, bananas, grapes, pineapples, water melon, choosing the ones that agree best with you.
- Outdoor exercises are very helpful.
- Brisk walking,
- Bicycling, swimming and deep breath gets adequate air into the lungs and give the body sufficient oxygen.
- On waking in the morning, lie on your back with knees flexed and pant; take in short breathes and gasp rapidly. Roll on your right side, face and left side and continue panting. This exercise has good effect on the system as it massages the bowels.
