Digestive problems are one of the most common problems affecting our health.  Your digestive health is of utmost importance for good health and even the slightest change in diet and exercise routine and habit can have an influence on your system.  As a result, bloating and digestive discomfort occurs, leaving you feeling ill and uncomfortable.

Bloating can be caused by a number of different things, including overeating, food allergies, food intolerances or menstruation.  Although not all of these causes are easy to overcome, a healthy diet will help to avoid discomfort and the embarrassing flatulence that comes with the package.

Here are some tips for healthier digestion:
- Have 5 to 8 portions of fruit and vegetables per day
- Check that you are enjoying a high fibre diet
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day.  You should have 1 glass of water for every 10kg of body mass.
- If you exercise moderately, at least 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week, it will make a huge difference
- Drink a liter of water when you wake up.  Add 15ml Herbalife Herbal Aloe Concentrate to your water to soothe your digestive system.
- Limit smoking, caffeine (from too much coffee) and refined carbohydrates such as sweet foods, fried foods and pastries

Quickly answer the following questions for yourself:
-What did you have for breakfast this morning?
-What do you drink in the morning?
-What happens next?
-Do you feel hungry and tired at about 11am?
-Do you then feel like having a cup of coffee or a snack then?
-What do you drink during the day?
-What do you have for lunch?
-Do you feel tired and sleepy after lunch?
-Then you need coffee again, right?
-How do you get until dinner?  What are you snacking in between?
-What do you have for dinner?
-Does it feel that you can’t stop eating even though you had a good dinner?

If you, like many other, ask in surprise “how did you know this?”  Well, the answer is easy; it all has to do with how you started the day and what you had for breakfast.  If you start your day with carbohydrates, you get yourself into a vicious cycle which determines your nutrition regime for the rest of the day.  This is even more so if you skip breakfast.

A strong link has recently been discovered between eating a bad breakfast and healt-related problems.  Your body is hungry for nutrients, energy and water in the morning, and what do we often give our bodies then?  Sugar!  A piece of toast with jam and a cup of coffee with sugar.  These are all simple carbohydrates which when digested immediately turns into sugar.  Your body now overcompensates and turns this extra sugar into fat.  However not long after, your sugar level drops, and you start craving sugar and sweet stuff (chocolates, sweets, etc).  If you eat these your sugar levels spikes again, just to fall again later.

This truly is a vicious cycle that has a negative effect on your health, nutrition and mood.

So what is a healthy breakfast then?  Here are some healthy diet tips.
It should fulfil the following criteria:
- Does it restore the energy spent in the last day?
- Does it restore proteins and other building materials used through the night?
- Does it fulfil your water stock
- Does it maintain natural energy levels throughout the day?

A healthy digestion is important for resisting illness and for feeling sharp, motivated, satisfied and happy. I do have some tips to help you improve your digestion.

• Drink warm water – A mug of warm water with a wedge of fresh lemon relaxes the digestive system and helps emulsify fat.

• Eat yoghurt – It contains natural probiotics which promote digestion and boost immunity.

• Eat early – Plan to finish eating dinner three hours before bedtime.  Sleeping with a full belly can give you indigestion and acid reflux and lead to weight gain.

• Chew your food – Chew up to 25 times or until food liquefies in your mouth.

• Exercise – This gets everything moving.

Herbalife Products – Herbalife Lipo Bond Supplement and Herbalife Aloe Concentrate are designed to help balance your body, it can aid the digestion of food and assist the body in the elimination of waste.Herbalife realises that men and women have different nutritional requirements which is why they have designed products especially to suit these needs.

‘Drink more water’ is a statement we all know well!  Why is drinking more water so important?
Water is the transporter of nutrients to cells within the blood.  It also helps us digest our food and it regulates our body temperature.

Weight control begins with and is built upon a foundation of proper hydration, since water soothes the appetite stimuli and helps to reduce fat deposits. Many people who are on a diet, drink very little as they are trying to reduce water retention. However, this is not effective for your weight loss.  When someone drinks too little water, the body reacts to this lack of hydration and starts to retain water. This could lead to swollen hands, legs and feet.  However, when we drink enough water, our bodies eliminate the excess water.

It is advised by the World Health Organisation that dieters should drink more water.  When our bodies are destroying fat, it needs even more water to elimate the waste products from the body.  The adequate hydration also aids weight loss, while keeping up muscle tone and skin nourishment.

Drinking enough water also forms an essential part of your Herbalife diet.  It is advised that you drink 8-12 glasses of water per day.

Here is how you can incorporate drinking water into your Herbalife diet,
Morning:
2 glasses of water, mixed with Herbalife Herbal Aloe Concentrate to aid digestion, plus your Herbalife Fibre & Herb digestive tablets and your Multivitamin
At teatime, have a full glass of water with Herbalife Thermojetics Herbal Beverage

Lunch:
2 glasses of water plus your Herbalife Fibre & Herb digestive tablets and your Multivitamin

At teatime, have a full glass of water with Herbalife Thermojetics Herbal Beverage

Dinner:
2 glasses of water plus your Herbalife Fibre & Herb digestive tablets and your Multivitamin
If you follow this plan, you will have had 8 glasses of water per day!

Stomach ache is often a combination of factors, including an oversensitive gut lining, and there may be some kind of inflammatory component. If it is a one off stomach ache, it could be something you have eaten, this will pass and you shouldn’t need to do more than wait it out.  More persistent stomach ache, especially if you also experience bloating, constipation and/or diarrhoea, is a classic symptom of irritable bowel syndrome. This syndrome is very common it is thought to affect one in 10 people with more woman and men suffering.
