BETTER DIGESTION
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Eat too much too fast? Rushing to an appointment? The
following may alleviate indigestion symptoms.
STEP 1
Press the corner points of your mouth lightly for 3 seconds.
STEP 2
Press the point one hand width above the navel lightly for 3
seconds.
STEP 3
Measure one hand width down from the kneecap. Then measure
one thumb's width toward outside of leg. To locate, simply
find the most sensitive place between the shinbone and the
large muscle. Press this point moderately with your thumb
for 5 seconds.
STEP 4
Push the point on abdomen one and a half inches below navel.
More On Better Digestion
The technique below may assist you in having better
digestion:
Eat only when relaxed. Stress and anxiety inhibit the
digestive processes. Digestion begins in your mouth with
saliva. So - eat small bites and chew each one thoroughly.
Take time to enjoy and savor every morsel. They say it's
best not to drink liquid with meals. Also, ask your health
care professional about plant-based enzymes and acidophilus
for optimum digestion.
As many times a day as you remember, with your thumb and
forefinger rub the web between your other thumb and
forefinger. Find the most tender spot.
NOTES: According to an article in the June 3, 1991 "Drug
Topics," continuous use of over-the-counter antacids to
relieve heartburn can be harmful. In some cases, the use of
medications covers up a more serious condition such as an
duodenal ulcer. Overusing antacids can also cause
constipation, diarrhea, gas, elevated calcium levels and even
central nervous system toxicity.
It's been said that liquid calcium/magnesium will relieve
acid stomach, and heartburn (ginger in capsule form may do
the same). If it works - it would be a lot safer than
prolonged anatacid use!
