Gastroenteritis is inflammation of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract because of food poisoning or other cause? It is one of the most common infections that affect people in the US. I have also been a part of the medical staff at hospitals for many years and while there, I was involved in treating patients with acute and chronic GI problems. In this article, I will share with you some of the herbal medicines that can treat and help improve this system.
It
is always advisable to use herbs for healing and enhancing the digestive
system. Herbs that are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants can help
balance the pH level and protect the sensitive lining of the stomach and
intestines. Some herbs also contain powerful anti-bacterial and anti-fungal
properties that can kill harmful bacteria and viruses. They also promote the
growth of good bacteria in the GI tract that eliminates harmful toxins. Some
herbs (Akseer-e-Jigar) for treating and improving the digestive system are:
Emblica ribes or Emblica Officinalis is a perennial herb that grows in the
Mediterranean area. This herb has been used since ancient times as an agent for
improving the immune system. It is a great source of vitamins A, C, B-complex,
folic acid, iron, zinc, and many other vitamins. It has also been used as an
expectorant, an antibiotic, an expectorant, an anti-spasmodic, and a stimulant.
Emblica ribes also known as pennyroyal helps alleviate the symptoms of
irritable bowel syndrome. This herb also helps increase the flow of bile, which
is responsible for helping the digestion process. It is also effective in
relieving diarrhea and dysentery. The combination of these effects makes it a
powerful agent for improving the digestive system. Some of the other herbs that
are good to use in conjunction with this one are fiber, spirulina, and
chlorella.
Flaxseed is also another great supplement for the digestive system. This
natural source of fatty acids improves the function of the digestive system and
minimizes the risk of developing ulcers. It also helps strengthen the walls of
the intestines. Some of the other herbs to use in this combination are senna,
bamboo shoots, hemp seeds, and beta-sitosterol. Other herbs that help prevent
digestive problems are fiber, aloe, chicory root, ginger, slippery elm, milk
thistle, and many others.
Milk thistle is a popular herb for improving the digestive system. It is
effective in eliminating waste products from the body, detoxifies the blood,
strengthens the walls of the intestines, improves the absorption of nutrients,
and increases the efficiency of nutrient absorption. Some of the other herbs to
use in this combination are senna, slippery elm, fennel seed, and hemp seeds.
Other herbs that prevent problems with digestion are fiber, aloe vera, chicory
root, ginger, milk thistle, and others.
Psyllium husks and bentonite clay are two other powerful herbs for improving
your digestive system. Psyllium husk reduces gas and bloating, while bentonite
clay supports the walls of the intestines and prevents constipation. Both of
these herbs act as a mild laxative agent and help to improve the elimination of
toxic wastes from the body. They can be taken in capsule form or in liquid
form.
Garlic and onion are two very powerful herbs for improving your digestive
system. They increase the number of good bacteria in the colon and also reduce
the level of toxins in the body. These two herbs can be taken in either their
fresh or dried forms. Both of them are excellent detoxifiers but in different
ways.
Psyllium husk acts like a fiber and slows down the absorption of glucose from
food and decreases gas production in the stomach. Fasting for a day and taking
psyllium husk as a supplement gives you relief from gas and indigestion. Eating
foods that are high in fiber helps improve your digestion. Fruits that are high
in fiber include apples, bananas, pears, peaches, oranges, and many more. Dark
leafy green vegetables like spinach have a lot of fibers and are good for
improving your digestion system.
Apple cider vinegar and fennel seed oil are herbs that improve your digestion
by increasing the volume of your bowel. They prevent constipation and reduce
diarrhea. Both of them are rich sources of antioxidants, which help in fighting
free radicals that damage cells in the body. Free radicals are responsible for
aging and diseases. They attack your digestive system when they come in contact
with certain vitamins and nutrients.
There
are so many herbs (Akseer-e-Jiagr) that improve the digestive system and if you want to get fast
and effective results you should use them on a regular basis. You should also
make it a habit to eat healthily and maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. It is
important to take a lot of water and avoid spicy and oily foods. Herbs provide
the best healing effect on your digestive system and if taken on a regular
basis it can help you get rid of many digestive disorders including colon
cancer, diverticulitis, and gastritis.
