During exercise, due to the increase in breathing depth and frequency, the diaphragm and abdominal muscles are also active, thus playing a certain massage effect on the gastrointestinal tract.
For people with IBS to help restore intestinal health, exercise is a convenient and simple treatment. Such as simple running, can promote peristalsis, most of the patients suffering from gastrointestinal diseases will be indigestion, and exercise when the blood in the stomach and intestines fast flow, the metabolism will also be accelerated. And exercise boosts one’s immunity, making the gut strong and not fragile.
