Natural: I find that when my patients actually eat 5 servings of whole fruits and vegetable and consume 8 glasses of water daily it takes care of a lot of digestion issues related to constipation.

Digestion: Ginger and peppermint are great for digestion. Fennel can also improve the digestion of foods. Fruits that improve digestion include papaya and pineapple. Both of them have enzymes that digest carbs, and protein. Some may also opt to take digestive enzymes.
