WOMEN TIPS FOR GASTRIC PROBLEMS -2

When soluble and insoluble dietary fibers are scarce in regular meals, flushing out solid, liquid wastes via the bowel and bladder becomes difficult and gastric trouble is an invariable consequence. Roughage in green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale and whole-grain cereals of oats, barley is key in easing bladder and bowel movement, thus ensuring the elimination of food wastes, injurious toxins, urine and stool, without any hindrance. Sedentary Lifestyle A lack of physical activity every day results in a gradual increase in the body mass index (BMI), which triggers chronic illnesses of obesity, hypertension and diabetes. Moreover, since the predominant part of the day goes by in remaining seated, the abdominal muscles, oesophageal tissues and diaphragm transport food particles at a slower pace than normal, hampering metabolism and slowing down digestion. Doctors, nutritionists and fitness trainers recommend adhering to a daily exercise routine, lasting for at least 30 minutes and which incorporates some high-intensity workouts. This not only uplifts heart functions and accelerates weight loss, but also prevents instances of gastric problems. Symptoms Of Gastric Problem: In certain cases, the gastric problem can present with grave symptoms including unbearable stomach pain, incessant nausea and vomiting, sudden loss of weight, discharge of blood with stool and high fevers. It is hence advised to seek advice from a medical expert, to obtain an accurate diagnosis of any underlying condition and provide appropriate treatment to the affected person. However, if the symptoms of gastric problem in a person are less in intensity, such as constipation, flatulence or gas, diarrhoea, bloating and indigestion, but tend to cause discomfort as it repeatedly develops, certain home remedies and exercises can help keep the issue under control.
