Weight Loss Happens Naturally With Good Digestion

Weight loss will be easier if you are digesting and eliminating food properly. The body can reach homeostasis (being in balance) when it has the capacity to metabolize food and eliminate waste comfortably.

With that in mind, it is helpful to take a look at our digestive capacity. Signs of indigestion include: bloating, belching and gas, nausea and vomiting, acidic taste, growling stomach, burning in the stomach or upper abdomen, abdominal pain, fatigue, and mental fogginess.

If you have any of these symptoms, here are some things you can do to aid digestion:

• Eat only at mealtimes
• Chew each bite of food 32 times
• Eat your largest meal midday
• Avoid drinking with meals
• Say grace before meals or sit quietly for a moment before you eat
• Eat only when hungry
• Eat a simple diet
• Eat mostly home-cooked meals

In addition, there are essential oils that can aid digestion. These include:

• Peppermint
• Fennel and Anise
• Black Pepper
• Lemon
• Ginger

I always recommend Young Living Oils, as they are the purest and most potent. Many of them can be taken internally (including the above ones). If you are interested in finding more about these oils, please contact me (317-445-4203).
