Keep in mind that regular exercise stimulates intestinal activity. This will help to regulate bowel movements and proper bowel functioning. Below are helpful tips:
- While weight training is an excellent source of exercise, try to avoid strenuous weight training as this may cause a flare up.
- Cardio exercise is great because it helps with stimulating bowel functioning. Some great sources are: walking, jogging, running and swimming.
- If you have a local yoga and/or Pilates studio or even just videos at home, this can also help to relieve stress as well as increase bowel function.

This means that it can actually help strengthen the good bacteria in your digestive tract. It can help to decrease stress during the digestive processes and rid your body of the bad bacteria that may comprise your immune system. A.M.P. FLORACEL® absorbs into your intestines and flows through your bloodstream which can help distribute the nutrients throughout your body. Every bone, muscle, gland tissue, and organ needs to absorb your nutrients properly. The healthy flora needs to thrive throughout your body and help coat areas of the digestive tract that are infected, hurt, inflamed and/or bleeding. The healing process can now begin.
Did you know that researchers believe 90% of all diseases begin in the digestive tract due to improper digestion, absorption, and assimilation of nutrients? Our supplement can help. For disorders and diseases of the digestive tract to recover, the immune system must be able to properly digest, absorb, and assimilate nutrients. Without proper absorption of essential nutrients, the immune system is unable to ward off potential diseases or battle against existing conditions.
The key to a healthy digestive system, diverticulitis natural treatment and a healthy immune system is the oral ingestion of A.M.P. FLORACEL®.
