In this podcast, we’re going to talk about how to speed up your digestion. If you have constipation, indigestion, gas, bloating, or stomach pain, this video is for you. I’m actually going to break down each part of your digestive tract and explain a little bit about it.

Breaking down the digestive tract:

Stomach —

Acid is the key thing in your stomach. It helps you break down protein, absorb certain minerals, and kill pathogens. Many people do not have enough strong acid in their stomach.

To support healthy stomach acid levels, consider:

• Hydrochloric acid (betaine hydrochloride)

• Salt

• Potassium

• Apple cider vinegar

• Kombucha tea

Consider avoiding:

• Antacids

• Calcium carbonate

Bile —

Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps you break down fats. Supporting bile production can also help with bloating and belching.

To support bile production, consider:

• Bile salts

• Beet tops

• Ginger

• Artichokes

• Lemon

• Milk thistle

• Choline

Consider avoiding:

• Decreasing friendly bacteria

• Taking out the gallbladder if possible

• A fatty liver situation

1:00.4	the stomach, okay? Acid is the key thing in your stomach. That helps

1:09.8	pathogens. Many people do not have enough acid in their stomach. Many people have acid in their stomach, but it's not very, very strong. It's a weak acid.
1:20.0	So the pH needs to be between one and three. That's like battery acid. If the
1:26.2	acid is really nice and strong and you have enough, then the valve on the top of
1:31.2	the stomach closes. You can eat food and it just
1:34.4	breaks down pretty fast. Adding more hydrochloric acid would be a good thing.
1:39.7	Now you're not going to actually drink hydrochloric acid because that's going to completely burn your mouth,
1:46.7	your esophagus all the way down. So you want to take a weaker acid that will then build up your hydrochloric acid and that's called
