Good digestive health can do a lot to make us feel strong, energized, and healthy. By the same token, digestive distress can do much more than just give us an upset stomach—it can contribute to lowered immunity, weight gain, energy deficiencies, and other issues in the body. 
To keep the body functioning at optimal levels, we must give it the nutrients and energy that it needs. In addition to nutritious food, some essential oils can help to support healthy digestion and ease discomfort.* Instead of suffering through the unpleasant effects of digestive distress like stomach discomfort, gas, bloating, and other issues, you can use essential oils to help promote a healthy, happy digestive system.*
