How healthy are you? How about on the inside? Many people who think about how healthy they are measure this by how many laps they can do at the track or how far they can ride their bike before getting tired. But there is another kind of health – internal health.
There is a whole world of activity going on inside your body that you never see, but if any part of that system breaks down you will sure notice it when you feel sick. One of the main parts of this process is your digestive system.
While you may not think a lot about your digestive system you have to keep in mind this is where your body gets all the fuel it needs to operate. When you take in food or liquid, it is processed through your digestive system. When it comes to food, the stomach breaks down the food and then as it moves through your intestines, the nutrients are pulled out of that food through the walls of your intestines until there is nothing left but waste.
