FOOD QUALITY

The first, and most important step for normalizing digestion is eating a high quality diet. An overwhelming majority of your diet should be comprised of high quality, nutrient dense, whole food sources.

HYDRATION

Poor hydration may slow the rate of the digestive process. Water is necessary • for certain nutrients to be dissolved into the bloodstream and for absorption into cells. Ensuring you cover your minimal daily fluid intake should be sufficient.

ROUTINE FEEDING

Follow a regular eating routine when possible. This means meals of relatively consistent quantity spaced at relatively consistent times.
