The digestive system is a 25- to 35-foot
-long hose like structure. It receives food at one end, breaks it down
into nutrients (a process called digestion), and absorbs the nutrients
into the bloodstream for delivery to the cells. The eliminatory system
helps maintain water and chemical balance and removes excess fluid and
waste from the body.
The primary structures of these systems are the mouth, oesophagus,
stomach, small and large intestines (colon), kidneys, bladder, and
anus.
When things go wrong
Digestive disorders are a major source of lost time. We all are
familiar with such inconveniences as constipation, diarrhoea, heartburn,
urinary tract infections, flatulence, and upset stomachs. Digestive
disorders also account for such serious problems as hepatitis, jaundice,
cirrhosis, diverticular disease, and cancer of the digestive system.
Anyone who suffers from digestive problems knows how miserable they can
make life.
Why things go wrong
Diet if often the main culprit. We eat too much processed food and
sugar, and not enough fibre, fruits, and vegetables. This alone can result
in constipation. Poor eating habits, such as eating too quickly or
irregularly, are also part of the problem.
In addition, parasites are a largely unknown but major problem. Other
risk factors are lack of exercise, effects of prescription and
over-the-counter drugs, smoking, stress, and alcohol.
To many digestive-eliminatory health
Many digestive problems can be prevented through lifestyle. Live the
Healthy Cell Concept and be sure to get adequate amounts of fiber, fruits,
and vegetables. Eat foods such as yoghurt, which contain beneficial
bacteria the digestive systems needs. Consider supplementing with pre and
probiotics and digestive enzymes, which can aid in digestion.
