Diabetes Health: Your Gastrointestinal System
Hi there,
According to research, People with Diabetes (PWD) are at an increased risk of developing digestive issues. But there are things you can do to maintain optimal digestive health.
Your Gastrointestinal (GI) system plays a major role in extracting the nutrients that help sustain optimal body health. So let’s take a look at this fantastic system.
About the Gastrointestinal System
Your GI system consists of your mouth, esophagus (long tube to your stomach), small and large intestines, rectum, and anus.
Hormones, muscles, and nerves are pivotal in helping your gastrointestinal system break down food, absorb nutrients, and move waste out of your body. Your GI system deconstructs the food you take in and extracts the nutrients your body needs.
