Just like "Face is an index of your mind", "Your Health is a reflection of your Gut". One look at your tongue and the problem of your digestive system and most of your health issues can be diagnosed immediately by experienced doctors. Most people believe and swear by the fact that all your health issues stem from stomach issues. It cannot be completely overlooked.though.
Here are 9 ways to keep your stomach happy and yourself healthy:
1. Drink a glass of hot or warm water on waking and sleeping. If possible throughout the day too.
