Eat Real Food

An increased risk of having digestive issues has been linked to the normal Western diet, which is high in refined carbohydrates, saturated fat, and dietary additives. It has been hypothesized that food additives, such as salt, glucose, and other chemicals, can promote gut inflammation and cause a disease known as leaky gut. Many foods that have been processed include trans fats. They have a notoriety for harming heart health, but they've also been linked to a higher risk of ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease.

Additionally, artificial sweeteners, which may cause stomach issues, are frequently included in processed meals like low-calorie drinks and ice cream. Artificial sweeteners may increase the amount of dangerous intestinal bacteria in your body, according to studies. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and irritable bowel diseases including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease have both been linked to imbalances in the gut bacteria. Fortunately, research suggests that nutrient-rich diets protect against digestive disorders. As a result, eating a diet high in whole foods and avoiding processed foods may be the key to achieving optimal digestion.
