No strong pungent smell, but a mild odor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nDo your bowel habits differ from this? Leading a stressful and fast-paced life, multi-tasking, consuming large amounts of processed food and eating on the go can have a severe effect on your digestive system and excretory functioning. Therefore, elimination is an important topic of discussion for a healthy life. Speaking of this, the main question is how do you do it?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tips to Support Healthy Elimination<\/h3>\n
To maintain a healthy body and mind, regular elimination of waste is important. Here are a few simple steps to support healthy elimination:<\/p>\n
1. Increase the Fiber Content in Your Diet<\/h4>\n
Increasing the fiber content in your diet is a great way to resolve constipation issues. However, not all food items have equal levels of fiber. Thus, consuming ones with abnormally higher levels (ones that come in packages or plastic boxes) can have an opposite effect and do great harm to the body. They suck up the water in your gut, increases the transit time and makes the stool dry. The best way to go about it is to begin eating four servings of organic fresh vegetables and restrict fruits to about two pieces a day.<\/p>\n
2. Don\u2019t Ignore Bathroom Signals<\/h4>\n
A common thing that most of us tend to do is ignore the body\u2019s signal of going to the bathroom amidst our busy work schedule. In such cases, the fecal material tends to move back up into the intestine, thus making it immensely difficult to eliminate. Never ignore your body\u2019s signs to go to the bathroom.<\/p>\n
3. Keep your Body Hydrated<\/h4>\n
Liquid intake is essential when it comes to good stool elimination. Lack of water in your body hardens your stool making it difficult to expel. A great way to begin your day is by drinking a glass of lukewarm water with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Lemon juice provides nutrients, stimulates the guts and maintains the alkaline state of your body by supplying Vitamin C to your immune system. An additional five glasses of water or even herbal teas give your body the basic amount of liquid it requires. If you\u2019re active, you should double that amount.<\/p>\n
4. Emotional Balance is Essential<\/h4>\n
Experiences indicate that emotional balance has a certain deal of effect on bowel movement. While diarrhea can be a result of fear, constipation can be a result of prolonged periods of worrying. Aparna Vata, the governing body of elimination has a direct link to the governing body of our thoughts, the Prana Vata. This connection rightly explains the feeling of relaxation we have after the elimination process. A bowel movement, apart from being a physical process, is a mental process as well. Avoid reading while you are in the bathroom. Avoid any kind of mental activity during the process. A short walk after dinner is a great way to improve digestion.<\/p>\n
5. Avoid indulging in Alcohol and Processed Food<\/h4>\n
Reduce the consumption of processed and manufactured food as much as you can. Having to wipe your anus too many times can be a result of an excess of mucus within your colon. Avoid pasteurized dairy, corn, peanuts, soy, and gluten products and try following an anti-inflammatory approach to eating.<\/p>\n
6. Reduce Stress Through Meditation and Yoga<\/h4>\n
Stress can have a negative impact on the overall health of your body, especially the digestive system. It can severely disrupt your elimination process. Meditation is one of the best techniques to reduce stress and encourage the constructive responses we have to stressful situations. A minimum of 10 to 15 minutes of meditation can profoundly impact your digestive health and present state of mind. The ayurvedic form of medicine highly supports and encourages the use of meditation as the foremost way of stress reduction in daily lives. A relaxed body highly aids the elimination process of the human body. You can also try our favorite yoga poses for a healthy digestion<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
All said, most of us do not generally care about this part of our body\u2019s digestive process. Nevertheless, this is the only aspect we think of when it goes wrong. The process of consumption, absorption, and elimination is quite natural for your body, but its proper functioning depends on the healthy food habits and lifestyle choices that we make.<\/p>\n
