Clean Up

                       Digestion



                       FOODS FOR A HEALTHY BELLY


                       One of the many benefits to eating clean is that it promotes good
                       digestive health. Fill your plate with these clean eating stars:

                       Beans, whole grains, and berries: Each is high in fiber, which
                       promotes good digestion.
                       Fermented foods: These foods contain beneficial bacteria that
                       aid in digestion. Whether it’s sauerkraut, buttermilk, sourdough,
                       kefir (fermented milk), kimchi (fermented vegetables), or miso
                       (fermented soybeans), they promote healthy bacteria in the digestive
                       tract while adding a punch of flavor to your meal.
                       Ginger: This age-old remedy for tummy troubles speeds up the
                       process of food moving from the stomach to the upper small intestine.
                       Water: By staying hydrated, your body’s water works with fiber to
                       move solids easily through your system.
                       Yogurt: Filled with good bacteria, live cultures, and probiotics, plain
                       yogurt is a good choice to keep your digestion functioning well.
