How Hydration Plays a Bigger Role in Digestion Than You Think
Hydration is one of the most overlooked aspects of digestive health. Even mild dehydration can affect how efficiently your digestive system functions and may contribute to bloating or digestive discomfort.
Why Water Matters for Digestion
Water helps:
-
Move food through the digestive tract
-
Support nutrient absorption
-
Maintain digestive balance
When hydration is low, digestion can slow, leading to feelings of heaviness or discomfort.
Easy Hydration Tips
Staying hydrated doesn’t have to feel like a chore:
-
Start your day with water
-
Sip consistently rather than all at once
-
Mix in warm beverages for variety
Hydration With Comfort
Staying hydrated doesn’t have to mean drinking plain water all day. Herbal tea is an easy, enjoyable way to support fluid intake. Poopy Time Tea is often enjoyed as part of a hydration routine, offering a comforting way to support digestion while helping you stay consistent with fluids.
