Doctor names simple but effective way to improve gut health
Improving the condition of the intestines has a positive effect on the digestion of food.
To make this possible, it is enough to carry out just one procedure.
As American nutritionist and MD Emily Spurlock shared with Health News , abdominal massage can help improve digestion.
This procedure, which can be done independently, stimulates bowel movements and prevents constipation.
This is especially useful when you are stressed, as the gentle clockwise kneading movements promote relaxation.
And stress, in turn, can cause delayed bowel movements caused by deterioration of the contractile activity of the gastrointestinal tract.
According to the expert, one massage session may not be enough. Therefore, the doctor recommended performing the procedure several times.
To achieve the desired effect, you need to lie on your back and begin making circular movements towards the ribs, pressing on the skin from the bottom up.
It is important to make movements clockwise, since this is the direction in which our intestines twist.
