Other healthy diet and lifestyle tips for week one:
- Drink lots of water. Water keeps your body hydrated and helps keep you regular. Challenge yourself today to drink at least eight full glasses.
- Read food labels. Foods high in fat are harmful not only to your digestive health, but also to your total health. Look at the nutrition label; if total fat is listed as 5% DV or less (daily value percentage), the food is considered low-fat.
- Cut down on caffeine. Too much can send your stress levels soaring–and throw your digestive tract off balance. If you can't eliminate it completely, try to alternate caffeinated beverages with mineral water or decaffeinated tea.
- Soak away stress. A warm bath will help your muscles relax and ease any cramping. Plus, nothing beats a relaxing soak in the tub after a long, stressful day.
Activity Idea: Cobra Pose
The Cobra Pose is a yoga position that can help you feel relaxed and reduce anxiety. It also can help stabilize digestion and minimize cramps. Please seek your physician's advice before beginning a new exercise routine.- Lie facedown on the floor with your legs together and your hands palms down under your shoulders. Rest your forehead on the floor.
- Inhaling, push off with your hands, and lift your head and chest off the ground, tilting your head back.
- Hold for two or three deep breaths, and then exhale and slowly come down.
- Repeat two to five times.
