Natural remedies for the Digestion


Cardamom is commonly used to treat indigestion by warming and stimulating the body.
It is also useful to treat gas.

Garlic and Nutmeg are both useful for digestive issues. Try adding garlic to your
meals or make a tea of nutmeg before or with a meal.

Lettuce and spinach are rich in vitamins A, B, C, and E and stimulate the smooth
operation of the digestive tract. Add these bulky greens to your diet to assist in
proper digestion.

Dill tea helps to relieve gas, indigestion, and cramps. To make dill tea, use one
teaspoon dill seeds to eight ounces of cold water. Bring the blend to a boil, reduce
heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Drink before or with a meal.

Lemon balm assist with digestion, especially in times of worry or anxiety.

Peppermint is well known to help indigestion, intestinal spasms, gas, and other
similar conditions, particularly in children. Peppermint leaves as a tea or added to
cottage cheese can assist in proper digestion.

Cabbage and kale are helpful for digestive problems because of the protective enzymes
they produce when eaten.

Fennel in food will help aid digestion greatly. Too much acidity in the stomach can be
regulated by drinking one cup of fennel tea. Fennel expels mucus and relieves cramps,
gas, and indigestion. Chewing fennel seed relieves hunger and eases digestion.

Cinnamon can be used as an aid for digestive processes and alleviates indigestion,
cramps and gas. See a recent post about how cinnamon can benefit other parts of your
body beyond digestion.

Ginger, sage, and bay leaf have been used traditionally for digestive disorders.

Oranges are used as a digestive remedy, aiding in the treatment of constipation.

Mustard, horseradish, and radishes are known to raise vital life forces and are
helpful in digestion because of the protective enzymes created when eating them.

Coriander is a digestive tonic and is a mild sedative. It is helpful for gas and
indigestion.

For slow digestion, take the Homeopathic Lycopodium (club moss)
