Although we do not consider this important, persistent indigestion can pose health risks.

The magazine "Take Pet" Spanish that the repeated indigestion can result in more serious diseases, and this difficulty may be one of the symptoms of a health illness.

She added that indigestion can lead to poor absorption of nutrients, which may cause malnutrition, and indigestion can also gradually cause heartburn, vomiting or nausea, as well as constipation or diarrhea.

The magazine stressed that diet is an essential component when it comes to the digestion process, so some foods can help us improve this process.

Here we provide eight foods that help with digestion:

1- Ginger
Ginger helps relieve nausea, stimulates the transmission of foods from the stomach to the small intestine and avoids heartburn.

Ginger also reduces intestinal gas and flatulence, and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, as well as for tumors and ulcers.

2- Yogurt
The magazine pointed out that yogurt contains a series of natural bacteria known as probiotics that accumulate in the intestine to help in the breakdown of food.

3- Kefir
The magazine pointed out that kefir - fizzy drink - has a similar effect to yogurt, which is a product of milk with yeasts and bacteria.

Kefir improves digestion because it increases intestinal healthy bacteria that are beneficial for digestion, and its consumption has been linked to decreased inflammation of the intestine.

4- Papaya
The magazine showed that papaya - a fruit between mango and melon - helps avoid indigestion, because it is rich in papain, an enzyme that breaks down proteins.

5- Salmon
The magazine confirmed that salmon provides many health benefits to the body because it contains an important percentage of omega-3 acids.

Precisely for this reason, salmon is classified as a food that helps in improving digestion, and this type of fatty acid helps reduce the risk of inflammation in the intestine and thus improves digestion.

6- Wheat bran
Wheat bran is among the most foods rich in insoluble fiber, which promotes the transport of food through the digestive system and contributes to relieving constipation.

The bran also reduces the risk of developing hemorrhoids and small cysts in the colon. Some other foods have a similar effect as wheat bran, similar to fiber-rich chia seeds, nuts and apples.

7- Chamomile
Chamomile tea helps relieve stomach pain and indigestion, as this kind of herbs facilitates the digestion of foods and protects against reflux and stomach acidity.

Chamomile also has an anti-inflammatory effect and is rich in flavonoids (antioxidants) and can help reduce stress and reduce indigestion.

8- Kiwi
Kiwi is good for the body, and is known for its high vitamin C content and a strong antioxidant, and it protects the respiratory system from certain diseases.

For the digestive system, consumption of this fruit has been shown to improve protein digestion and eliminate constipation.
