In this podcast, we’re going to talk about how to speed up your digestion. If you have constipation, indigestion, gas, bloating, or stomach pain, this video is for you. I’m actually going to break down each part of your digestive tract and explain a little bit about it.

Breaking down the digestive tract:

Stomach —
Acid is the key thing in your stomach. It helps you break down protein, absorb certain minerals, and kill pathogens. Many people do not have enough strong acid in their stomach. 

To support healthy stomach acid levels, consider:
 • Hydrochloric acid (betaine hydrochloride)
 • Salt 
 • Potassium 
 • Apple cider vinegar 
 • Kombucha tea 

Consider avoiding:
 • Antacids 
 • Calcium carbonate 

Bile —
Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps you break down fats. Supporting bile production can also help with bloating and belching.

To support bile production, consider:
 • Bile salts 
 • Beet tops 
 • Ginger
 • Artichokes 
 • Lemon 
 • Milk thistle
 • Choline 

Consider avoiding:
 • Decreasing friendly bacteria 
 • Taking out the gallbladder if possible
 • A fatty liver situation
