Nutritional Therapy: Digestion

The BIG IDEAS for DIGESTION for Nutritional Therapy:

  1.  Digestion is a NORTH to SOUTH process.
  2. The big three organs for digestion from a Nutritional Therapy standpoint:
  • Gallbladder:  releases bile to emulsify fats (ideally good fats – not the processed damaged fats)
  • Pancreas:  release pancreatic enzymes lipase, protase and lactase to digest foods
  • Stomach:  digests proteins, absorbs calcium, B vitamins (intrinsic factor) and more.

3. Digestion is fundamental to Nutritional Therapy:  every cell the makes up every tissue, that makes up every organ depends on the body’s digestion system to provide the nutrients it needs to keep on functioning.
