AGING• Diseases• More Rx Antibiotics• Malabsorption or maldigestion• Dietary Changes• Less Salivation• Inadequate Carb Digestion• Loss of Muscle Tone & Elasticity in Anal
Sphincter
Aging Solutions
• Probiotics – naturally or in supplement formincluding fermented foods, yogurt
• Exercise – to enhance muscle tone around digestive organs, enhance digestion
• Kegel-specific with the anal sphincter• Dietary Changes – dairy, fiber, wheat,
cruciferous vegetables, and yes, beans

• Apricots, bananas, melon, prunes, green pepper, broccoli, cauliflower, artichokes, asparagus, brussel sprouts, cabbage
Preparation Solutions• Avoid Breaded and Fried • Spices for some aid digestion (chili, ginger) • Coconut milk fat content can inhibit digestion• FAT + PROTEIN foods containing little carbs
tend to produce least amount of gas• Soluble Fiber = greatest amount (Starchy
Vegetables)
EXERCISE• Improves speed of
digestion• Improves muscle tone
in digestive muscles • Improves tone of anal
sphincter muscles
• Pressure on abdominals and core muscles promotes gas
• Running, walking and other cardio activities act as internal “jogging”
• Yoga poses can aid digestion
YOGA POSES• Seated Forward Bend• Standing Forward Bend• Knee To Chest• Cat – Cow Back• Spinal Twist• Bridge• Rotated Triangle• Prayer Pose
• Rotation and twists massage the digestive organs
• Forward Bends compress and relieve
• Alternately lengthening and shortening the spine aids the digestive tract in moving
• Bridge adds tone to the core muscles
