The document discusses how yoga practices like asanas, pranayama, and bandhas can help strengthen the digestive system and treat common issues. It notes that many people suffer from an inefficient digestive system due to emotional eating habits, consuming too many refined foods, and other modern lifestyle factors. Yoga aims to reactivate the pranic energy through practices that strengthen the gastrointestinal tract and spinal column. Proper eating, including choosing whole, plant-based foods and avoiding late night meals can also support optimal digestion.
