Numerous health issues are caused by a compromised gut health. Many signs of a sick gut include acidity and discomfort. Ishti Saluja, a nutritionist, stated to HT Lifestyle that “gut problems are more widespread than you realise. The symptoms of a weak gut include acidity, heartburn, indigestion, and irregular bowel movements. While the occasional bout of bloating is fine, other digestive problems can be irritating. She also listed the usual errors we make when attempting to restore intestinal health. These are what they are:
Results overnight: Digestive problems cannot be treated with a single nighttime medication, unlike headaches and other aches and pains. The longer it takes to recover from gut problems, the older we get. Usually, it takes 4 months or so for stomach problems to entirely disappear.
Although fibre is essential for us, it becomes one of the most difficult foods to digest when someone has digestive issues. It is preferable to assess your current fibre intake and then raise it by 5g per day for one week, followed by another 5g per day the following week.
Digestion: Nutrition, stress, sleep, and exercise are the four foundations of intestinal health. In addition to digestive problems, high levels of stress and poor sleep are major contributors to a weak gut. It is unfair to merely alter your food or rely on supplements when taking care of your gut health and then anticipate favourable outcomes.
Treatment: Self-treating digestive problems can frequently have negative effects. A gut specialist should be consulted to determine the best course of treatment.
Root cause: We should address the underlying causes of the symptoms that manifest rather than just concentrating on short-term comfort. We won’t be able to solve the problem permanently till then.
We must emphasise that successful healing is utterly dependent on your thinking or mental attitude. Stress and low mood might hinder healing; on the other hand, an optimistic outlook can. Gut healing is particularly adversely affected by stress. Cortisol, our stress hormone, is released when you experience either physical, biochemical, or mental/emotional stress, among many other effects. Both digestive problems and immune system suppression are detrimental to gut repair. We need to concentrate on our mental health and stress management, just like with our physical health, according to nutritionist Sonia Bakshi.
Raw vegetables: Sonia Bakshi continued by saying that we should boil our vegetables only a little bit before consuming them. The intestines can also be healed by eating fermented vegetables.
