Supporting digestion

Digestion is the process by which the body breaks down the food we eat into usable components. When we put food into our mouths digestion has already started, because digestion means breaking food down into smaller molecules, which are then used to fuel the energy, growth, and functioning of the body at many levels.

Although we might not think of it as such, the stomach is a muscular organ that contracts and expands in order to mix the food with digestive juices. The most important part of digestion takes place in the small intestine, where most chemical digestion and absorption of food occurs. As the liquid food paste travels through the small intestine, nutrients are absorbed and enters the bloodstream, traveling to all the body's cells and systems to maintain health and replenish the immune system. The intestines complete the process of digestion.

The natural way

Naturopaths recognize that the whole person must be treated in order to maximize health and promote healthy digestive systems. Rather than treating problems in isolation, naturopaths prefer to take a holistic look at the individual and encompass a variety of factors to include diet, lifestyle, personality type, surroundings and emotional elements.

Herbal and homeopathic remedies have been used for centuries to assist with healthy digestion, and there is documented use of herbs to promote the digestive process in writings as far back as ancient Egypt.

Cultures throughout the world have relied on digestive herbs as part of traditional medicine with excellent results. Even today, herbs and spices are used not only for their delicious taste but also to assist with digestion - helping to promote trouble-free digestive functioning and promote harmony and balance in the digestive tract - naturally! These positive benefits have been borne out by research. (Hashimoto, K., Satoh, K., Murata, P., Makino, B., Sakakibara, I., Kase, Y., Ishige, A., Higuchi, M., and Sasaki, H. “Component of Zingiber officinale that improves the enhancement of small intestinal transport.” Planta Med. 2002;68(10):936-939)

How has DigestAssist helped others?

“About two months ago, I ordered one of your PetAlive remedies for my cat and I then fell upon your human line of holistic remedies. My husband Frank has been suffering for the past 18 years with terrible stomach discomfort and just went to the doctor for a whole gammut of tests that doctors ordered. The doctor put him on pills and a "special diet"; neither of which seemed to work, and only caused him more discomfort. I ordered both DigestAssist & Gastronic Dr. from your website.

My darling husband has reluctantly been taking both as directed for about three weeks now and he went to the doctor yesterday to make sure it was okay to take these remedies with his other medicine. Frank also told the doctor about the problems he was experiencing whenever he MISSED a doses of your herbs.

The doctor told Frank NOT to stop taking the herbs that his wife insists on giving him!! So see, us wives do know some things!! I just can't tell you how thankful I am to your company for making two wonderful products that have given my husband relief of his stomach problems”
