- intuitive eating · Helped
I ended up feeling better digestion wise when I ate intuitively. I also ended up losing weight unintentionally but it wasn't the weight loss that was the biggest 'positive' as I didn't care about that, but my digestion just felt better and I had more frequent bowel movements which I really struggled with before.
In context ↗ - electrolytes · Helped
They helped me so much with constipation and bloating. When you take electrolytes though make sure you drink more fluids.
