1. Keep a schedule – A regular schedule for your meals and snacks, this can help keep your digestive system in top shape. If you find yourself too busy or forgetful, set an alarm or add it to your calendar. If you’ll be on the road, pack your lunch and snacks to go.
2. Lean meats and fiber- We all need our protein as part of a healthy diet but instead of fatty cuts of meat, choose lean cuts. Pork and skinless chicken or turkey are wise choices. Adding fiber to your diet will help foods mover through the digestion process and less constipation. 
3. Hydrated- Drinking plenty of water is good for your digestive system and your overall health. Not drinking enough water can slow down your digestive system. You’ll know you’re drinking enough water when your pee is clear. 
Exercise – Regular exercise speeds up your digestion, stimulates muscles in your GI tract and helps blood flow to your organs to make them work better. Your goal should be at least 30 minutes a day with walking, an elliptical trainer or swimming. *Tip- Use the stairs in your house. 
Manage stress- Reduce your stress with an activity that relaxes you. Find a stress-reducing safe zone to calm yourself. This is a perfect time to take in a walk or a bath. Do this on a regular basis so your digestive system isn’t working overtime.
Just say no- Get rid of bad habits! Cigarettes and caffeine can mess-up your digestive system which can lead to other problems like ulcers.
Probiotics- I am not great at taking pills on a schedule but give me gummies and I never forget. I easily found Nature Made Dual Action Probiotic + Energy‡† B12 Gummies at Krogers (and at an affordable price). These gummies taste great and makes you feel like you’re having a treat. Probiotic naturally helps support digestive health† and Vitamin B12 supports cellular energy production†. The raspberry and cherry flavors are delicious and they contain 4 Billion probiotic cells or CFU* per serving that helps support my digestive health.

What do you do for better digestive health? Have you ever taken a probiotic?
A good probioitic is key! I take one everyday, and I feel much better these days. I’ll have to try this one for the added B vitamins, too!
I take a daily probiotic. It has really helped my stomach and my overall health too.
I never miss taking a probiotic each day. It’s an essential part of keeping my gut happy and healthy. I like that these come in gummy form!
Probiotics are really such a huge help. I know that I feel better when I am on them.
That’s really nice. It’s good to have your digestive health in order especially since it’s also going to help you lose weight. I think these are very good tips!
Staying active has always helped my digestion, it’s really effective. I love the other tips that you have here, they’re all tried and tested!
I am glad to know that you take care of your body very well! I do most of the tips you listed in this post, and of course I take probiotic supplements too. It does help me a lot to keep my gut and every part of me healthy!
These are impeccable tips. Staying hydrated has been a tough one for me. Taking steps to remember to get that water down.
I had that issue to so in the morning I grab a glass of ice water and a straw. For some reason the straw helps LOL #KidAtHeart
A probiotic will make such a huge difference. I started one a few months ago and my gut health, well, my overall health, in general, was dramatically better.
Exercise and water have been a huge focus for me this past year. My aging isn’t helping the gut health either so being proactive about it is important.
I’m so good about most of these, but water is definitely my downfall! I really need to work on that. I think I am behind the times, too, because I have not tried any probiotics yet. I will now, though, as it sounds like I am missing out!
I do pretty well with some of the things on your list, but I’ve got a long way to go! Probiotics certainly need to become part of my daily routine.
I so need to start taking these! I bet they would make a huge difference in my digestive issues!
