However, there is a simple, accessible and equally effective way to take care of the digestive system, which is to exercise regularly, according to the health page Health.
"The gut is a trainable organ, like the heart, lungs or muscles. And the best way to train it is to exercise," said Australian nutritionist John Hawley.
The human body contains trillions of microorganisms living in the digestive system, also known as the gut microbiota.

This microbiome plays a vital role in overall health, from aiding digestion and regulating metabolism to boosting the immune system and preventing many diseases.
A diverse and healthy microbiome can help reduce inflammation, improve digestive function, and even contribute to the prevention of certain dangerous diseases.
Regular exercise is one of the factors that helps maintain the balance and diversity of this microbiome.
"Physical activity increases the number of beneficial bacteria, produces short-chain fatty acids that support gut health, reduce inflammation and can protect the body from diseases such as bowel cancer," says Sara Campbell, a gastroenterologist in Canada.
Not only that, the relationship between the gut and physical activity is a two-way street.
When the gut microbiome is healthy, mobility and exercise performance are also significantly improved.
During exercise, muscles release many substances into the blood, which then travel to other organs such as the liver, kidneys and intestines, providing comprehensive health benefits.
Your liver and kidneys don't work when you run, but they're still healthier thanks to the indirect effects of exercise, says Hawley. The same goes for your gut.
Good Digestive Exercises to Improve Gut and Overall Health
According to experts, endurance exercises such as running or cycling are clearly effective. These exercises help improve the microbiome environment in the gut, even in people who were previously sedentary.
