Heal Your Digestion With Ayurveda
Ayurvedic medicine is designed to restore body balance so the body can heal itself without dependence on pills or powders. In Ayurveda there is a classic remedy for the digestive process called Trikatu. Trikatu actually resets the ability for you to digest your own food rather then do the digesting for you. It is a simple combination of Ginger, Black Pepper and Long Pepper:- Ginger is perhaps one of the worlds finest digestive aids that won't overheat the digestive process.
- Black Pepper stimulates the flow of your own digestive enzymes.
- Long Pepper helps to strengthen the digestion and break down hard to digest foods - and like ginger it won't overheat the digestive process.
Please Note: If you have a tendency towards heart burn or acid reflux, you may benefit more from the herbal formula Cool Digest, which also strengthens digestion but cools cools acidity and heat in the upper digestive tract.
While there is a time and place for digestive enzymes as a medicine for short term use to help your digestion in an emergency, long term use is just not in your best interest. Regular use of digestive enzymes weakens your digestion because your body no longer has to do the work itself and you will then become dependent on them. It's similar to exercise - if you stop exercising you start to atrophy and become weak.
