If you have a big meal...and you need to speed of the digestive process...is there anything you can do?
Question:
Answers:
Was it McDonalds? So good but worse to digest. Anyway, here's what I found, hope it helps.
<<<Complex muscle contractions aid digestion:
-Segmental contractions: move food back and forth, mixing it
-Peristalsis: moves food in one direction, from stomach toward anus
-These muscle activities are reflex actions, responding to the stretching of the gut wall when it fills with food
-Reflexes are generated by local nerves in the myenteric plexus, but are also modulated by the autonomic nervous system.>>>
Also, water is a BIG help...drink lots!
