While everyone must be concerned about cancer or inflammation of the digestive tract, the commonest cause of upper or lower digestive problems are caused by alterations in the functions of the digestive tract. Upper abdominal pain and sour stomach is most often called dyspepsia and there are about 25 million people with functional dyspepsia where peptic ulcers are not present. The most common disorder of the gastrointestinal tract is the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The IBS is a functional disorder of the lower gastrointestinal tract, but scientific studies show that irritability or disordered function of the upper and lower digestive tract may occur together. In simple terms, disorders of function of the bowel represent a lack of harmony of the complex functions of the digestive system.

            Every bathroom cupboard in the nation contains one or more digestive aids including anti-acids and over-the-counter (OTC) pills that reduce the secretion of acid by the stomach. These popular digestive medications are used in a premature manner and often inappropriately without attention to positive changes in lifestyle and nutritional support with dietary supplements that can restore balance to gastrointestinal function.

            Symptoms such as difficulty in swallowing, significant change in bowel habit or bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract should cause an individual to seek medical advice and avoid self-medication. That said, a number of dietary supplements can be combined together to support many different functions of digestion and to support the structures of the gut. 

            There are six major ways of supporting digestive function and if anyone were to seek separate supplements for each function, then individuals may be taking at least six different dietary supplements. Natural ways to digestive health with supplements include:

• PROBIOTICS: Taking healthy bacteria that can grow in the lower bowels and produce a variety of the local and general health benefits.
• DIGESTIVE ENZYMES: Taking a variety of different enzymes that can help to digest food and help to improve general nutritional status. These enzymes can be combined with systemic enzymes which have several health benefits.
• PREBIOSIS: Feeding the healthy bacteria which cause a healthy environment in the colon.
• DETOXIFICATION: Taking herbs or botanicals that can support the role of the digestive tract, especially the liver, in eliminating toxins from food and the body
• STRUCTURE SUPPORT: A variety of natural substances can help support the lining of the digestive trace which is a very active interface of the body.
• OPTIMIZING THE DIGESTA: Many clinicians have underestimated the value of anti-oxidants, contained within several botanicals, for the promotion of digestive and general body health.
• MAINTAINING REGULARITY: Assistance in evacuating the colon, a form of body cleansing, can be achieved with several herbs.
