How undigested food
affects the stomach and
digestive system

Conditions associated with undigested food
• bloating • constipation • gas • gastritis • IBS
• oesophageal reflux • peptic ulcers • ulcerative colitis
• malabsorption of nutrients (weakened immunity, osteoporosis etc.)

When food cannot digest it ferments forming gasses and alcohols. The gas build-up creates pressure forcing digestive juices to reflux, and alcohols which are formed in the fermentation process cause erosion, inflammation and ulcerations of the mucosal lining.

Factors which inhibit digestion

• Low Stomach Acid (or high PH)
  Many people with digestive ailments are under the misconception that they are OVER producing stomach acid, but in actual fact they are often not producing ENOUGH stomach acid. The body’s natural ability to produce stomach acid/hydrochloric acid (HCI) is affected by certain factors like stress, nutrient deficiency and aging. Additionally, low levels of acid also allow certain bacteria such as H. pylori and E-coli to survive and proliferate inside the stomach and digestive system.
• Stress - emotional, physical or mental
  Digestion is dramatically impacted by stress. The body produces adrenaline and cortisol in reaction to stress. This is what is commonly termed the ‘natural fight or flight’ reaction. Extreme stress causes the body to over-produce cortisol to counter these higher stress levels. Excessive cortisol hinders sleep patterns, digestion and metabolism, resulting in digestive disorders and weight gain. The body’s adrenaline response increases the heart rate and redirects blood from the digestive system to the muscular system. This results in an accumulation of undigested food and the build-up of damaging gasses and alcohols.
• Other causes of digestive disorders and damage to the mucosal lining include alcohol abuse, long term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and pain medication, all of which cause inflammation and erosion of the gastric mucosal lining which inhibit the secretion of digestive juices.

Healing benefits of The Other Option’s
DIGESTIVE REMEDY

• Natural Anti-inflammatory Properties
  DIGESTIVE REMEDY has natural anti-inflammatory properties which strengthen and heal the inflamed or ulcerated lining of the oesophagus, stomach and digestive tract.
• Digestion
  DIGESTIVE REMEDY naturally stimulates the release of digestive hormones which boost digestion and increase the absorption of nutrients.

DIGESTIVE REMEDY vs antacids, acid blockers and
proton pump inhibitors (PPI’s)
The Other Option’s DIGESTIVE REMEDY naturally improves digestion by stimulating the release of digestive hormones. Antacids, acid blockers and PPI’s neutralize, reduce or block the release of stomach acids which treat the symptoms. Stomach acid is vital for digestion. Without stomach acid the body is unable to digest food and break it down into nutrients which are essential for the normal functioning of our bodies. Without these nutrients and proper digestion, our brain, bones, immunity and nerve functions are all compromised.

Opt for our effective, safe and natural product, The Other Option’s DIGESTIVE REMEDY. This 100% natural remedy supports, maintains and promotes digestive health and vitality.

Choosing liquid oil over capsules…
Invest in liquid oil

Choosing liquid Siberian Pine Nut Oil over capsules is the best bet for people with digestive troubles. People who suffer from digestive problems benefit from the soothing coating the oil forms on the oesophagus and fragile stomach lining, which acts as a natural anti-inflammatory. The coating strengthens the delicate stomach lining which is prone to inflammation. Inflammation hinders the secretion of digestive juices, which results in impaired digestion. This essential ‘coat of arms’ is not formed when capsules are used.
Digestive ailments most often result from food not being digested properly in the stomach, which can further hinder the efficacy of capsule use. In cases where there are low stomach acid levels, digestion is impaired and the benefits of the oil are lost.
Liquid oil is also more cost-efficient for the consumer. Given that the recommended dose of one teaspoon (5ml) of Siberian Pine Nut Oil is equivalent to 5 capsules, the liquid form means that users will not need to swallow large numbers of pills in order to benefit from the product. The bottle size (250ml) contains approximately 50 doses of the oil.
“We have chosen not to offer our product, The Other Option’s DIGESTIVE REMEDY, Siberian Pine Nut Oil, in capsule form for these very reasons”, say Sophia and Cali, co-founders of The Other Option. “We understand that in order to be most effective, the soothing, supportive oil form is the best option. Our concern is ALWAYS for our customers. Healthy digestion is at the gut of our business and our choices are always guided by this principle.”
Given that a study by the National Institute of Health found that digestive diseases affect 70 million people and that 14% of in-patient hospitalisations are related to these diseases, investing in The Other Option’s liquid oil will give the best returns on health.
