4 Ways to support Belly Pain and Digestion issues
A few years back I came in my kitchen one morning to find my teenage son lying on the floor, holding his belly. He told me his stomach was hurting super bad. He didn't want to miss school and was anxious to stop the pain.
Of course being in a household where his dad is a Pediatric Gastroenterologist, the first question out of my mouth was, "Did you poop yet this morning?"😂
The question didn't even phase him (he's used to it)...but the answer was, "Yes, mom" (teenager rolls eyes).
His pained face had me worried that we might possibly be dealing with appendicitis.
Next question ... "Do you want some DigestZen?" That met with a whole hearted "YES". We've used this particular oil blend many times in our family, and it is an absolute life saver.
We rarely reach for something from the medicine cabinet anymore. In fact, my husband commented we hadn't even opened that for the last few years. We reach for our oils almost every time. My kids have learned, & have experienced oils helping them faster, & without all the lousy side effects of stuff from the drug store.
So I gave him 2 drops of DigestZen in his mouth (which is a digestive blend), and had him rub a couple drops on his belly where it was hurting.
Within 10 minutes he came & found me...totally fine...pain all gone. He was off to school & good the rest of the day.
We all deal with gastrointestinal discomfort from time to time...even if it's as simple as overeating a really good meal & feeling yucky after. The following tools are wonderful to have in your medicine cabinet, or to take with you on vacation (when a lot of that tummy trouble tends to happen).
Top 4 Ways to support DIGESTION:
PB Assist Probiotics
I talk about this probiotic all the time, because it's unique. Most people using probiotics are wasting their money on an ineffective product, because to be effective, the bacteria in probiotics need to be alive when they get to your intestines. They have to get PAST the acid in the stomach.
Most can't do this.
PB Assist is double encapsulated to ensure it gets past the stomach before opening. It contains “food” for the bacteria (a prebiotic) to ensure they stay alive in the capsule. Both are important.
I take one of these each night before climbing into bed (on an empty stomach).
Frankincense + Cardamom
Both of these oils are so supportive to the digestive system. Rub a drop of each onto bottoms of feet each morning (gets absorbed into bloodstream). I also love to put a drop of Frankincense under my tongue every morning. It has so many health benefits for many different body systems. Such a good habit to adopt.
DigestZen essential oil blend
Drink 1 to 2 drops with water, or rub over stomach to ease pain or discomfort in the intestine or stomach. Personally, our family uses both methods together … 2 drops in the mouth, then 2 drops rubbed over the belly or chest (depending on where you're struggling). We typically have relief in about 15-20 minutes. That's the coolest!
Terrazyme Digestive Enzymes
Take 1 capsule with each meal. This helps to digest your food so you don't have that pain with eating. These are a lifesaver! Especially helpful when you're traveling & maybe not making the best diet choices. Or is that just me?😂
