It's an open secret that we all like to hog on food
and who doesn't but the problem arises
when the digestion becomes a problem
so today talking about that we have
intigretated nutritionist we have Neha Ranglani
who yet again is here answering all other questions
and gut happens to be
one of the most discussed and most questions
we get is related to gut health because
constipation acidity has become such a huge problem
so first of tell me what is this whole thing about digestion
the digestion was not openly talk about
now it's become a major issue
you really right Avantika what you said is
digestive system is such a spoken out topic
and everyone's talking about digestive health gut health
there was point in life when no one realized
all point and issue that we were facing actually
came from your gut be it your hair fall acne
any other major issue in the bodies
actually began from the gut and like
hypocritic said that saying is so true
All diseases began in a gut
so a gut or digestive system is the only organ
which exposes us to external world through
our food we eat\
so it's very important to take care of this organ because
if this organ gets damaged
whatever we are putting in our mouth or in our body
through the food we eat
so even if there are toxin in it
it all gets absorp in our blood stream
and than cause a havok
and that is very important to understand
and so what you put in your mouth
actually determines health of this tube
that runs across our body
and if you put in the wrong thing which most of
us do today
we barely put right things in our systems
constipation is a by product
acidity has to be there right
and there are so many other issues like piles
there's indigestion there's in tolerances
insensitivity and all of that happening
all steams from the gut
also you know a lot of people must be coming to you
All of us must have hurt and we seen it
that when I remember there's problem with a gut
all we do is pop a pill
so what are the pro's and cons
like how feesable how much do you recommend this
ya I think we been trained to think of a problem as
a part and not as a whole
what happens is when we have symptoms like
constipation taking legsative becomes
A quick fix and a go to
you know it's gonna work next morning and
you gonna feel lighter and all of that
and if you have acidity popping up
something that we mindlessly do
and most people do that
but we don't realize that everything has
root cause from I come
what is your phase of constipation
if you don't deal with that and you keep popping pills
to band aid your symptoms
your gut lining is gonna get damaged
because at the end of day these are drugs
they go and irritate your nerves and irritates cell in your gut
which then can't do digestion absorption well
and that is going to become cronic and cronic
after a point you'll see no pills will work
because you are not treating problems from root cause
or with right solution you just band aid it with a pil
so clearly you have understand what is causing acidity
what is causing your constipation and then
work on solution and than
you will see it all gets better
body know how to heal
like you said you put more of wrong things in
than the right one's
and we usually take our digestive system for granted
what are the repocautions I am sure there are lot
putting all wrong food inside
so basically we always looked at digestive system
as organ which digest our food right
but it does a lot more
A immunity is 70% from digestion
so if you're not taking care of digestive system
your lower immunity and you'll fall infectious
way faster and recover soon
Also our gut is like house of billions of bacteria
which actually feed on food that we eat
so if you eat the wrong food
you will have the bad bacteria growing and the good bacteria dying
good bacteria in our gut actually does a lot of function like
helping us digest absorption of food
balancing our hormones balancing our moods
lot of poor mood swings come from poor gut bacteria
our gut has nerves our stomach has nerve
which is connected to the brain
so if your gut is not healthy your brain will never be balance
all the negative thoughts all the mood swings
all the irritibilty anger all of that
actually steams a lot from the gut
so if you want good bacteria to grow
you have to eat right kind of food
so not just digestion I think you need to look at
digestive system as important system as body
treated with lot of tender loving care and
nature it with right food so that your immunity is in place
your mood is in place
the other organs are happy
you're overall good shape and state
coming post that about food
what would you say one should go for
in order to maintain a good gut health
so like I told you earlier whatever we eat
either helps your gut cells to get better or it damages them
so by now we all know what is bad for us
but we still eat it mindlessly but little
mindfullness can go long way
so making sure you eating as natural as possible
a lot of fruits which actually alkicies the gut
and they actually heal the cells of the gut
because they have a lot of anti oxidant
and vitamins minerals all of that
our salad our raw salads are best food
for good bacteria in our gut
because bacteria feed on fibre
also our greens
greens are very alkacing they have a lot of folate
they have lot of vitamin K
they have again lot of nutrients which again heals the gut\
than your sprouts whole grain all these food are very good
ow what you should avoid is
the packaged foods the fried foods
all the food which comes with lot of preservatives
chemicals artificially grown food
artificially processed food
everything that is refined all of that needs to be out
because clean eating is what your gut enjoys
if you don't eat clean and these cells get damaged
they start opening up and that's when
licky blood comes in your body starts leeching out
all the proteins and bacteria and toxins into
the blood stream causing lot of other diseases
so maintaining the most integrity of gut lining
through good food is important for your survival
ya so lot of herbs and species from our normal
kitchen cabinet can do
wonders for our gut health
so from your ginger to lemon to mint
your soft jeera ajwain
elaichi all these herbs and spices are super carmenative
they basically calm your gut cells
they repair it they help to digest the food
and they basically improve the gut cell straingt
than gut stay strong and healthy inside
we also have certain suppliments which do very well
pro biotics so if you eating not great diet
you been taking a lot of medication you been doing a
lot of anti biotics and taking pro biotic
a good quality pro biotic really helps
to improve the bacteria
which is good for us so good bacteria
so glutenim is again great for the gut
which is like super strenghtner of gut
so if you have lot of gut issue leaky gut
also glutemin can help you again
it differs from person to person
everybody comes with different cause and problem
so you have to deal with person as per his problem
and as per his lifestyle so
again you can improve your gut health
you can recover age you can repair it
and than live a happy and really healthy life
