The Gastro-Intestinal System

 Poor Digestion

When dealing with the Gastro-intestinal system, the problems affecting it may primarily be divided into just a few categories.

*Inflammatory                                     *Spasmodic

*Functional                                          *Infective

Conditions carrying different diagnoses are often approached in a similar way herbally so you will see some crossover in the herbs when maintaining a healthy digestive tract

Poor Digestion:

Poor digestion may result from many factors, some directly related to the functions of the digestive tract, but many relating to the nervous system and external factors.  Anorexia and Bulimia are psychogenic eating disorders, which as well as herbs, require counseling.

Factors Affecting Poor Digestion:

-         Low stomach acid production

-         Stress
