Digestion Problems Continued

Another thing that can help us prevent gastrointestinal problems is to revise some of our habits that may be causing these issues. Certain foods can actually interfere with digestion. Here are a few foods that you should be aware of and cut down your intake.

The first is coffee. It doesn't mean you can't have it, it means to cut back how much you drink. some other foods are chocolate, fatty or fried foods, heavy cream sauces. The other thing to do here is to decrease the size of your meals. My husband and I now only order one meal when we go out because there is more than enough food for both of us, sometimes there is enough to take some home. The portion sizes in most restaurants is way more than most of us need to eat. It's OK to take some home. You would be better off to eat 6 small meals a day
