Slow gut motility means food moves too slowly through the digestive tract, leading to bloating, constipation, and nutrient absorption issues. Common causes include low hydration, low dietary fiber, poor electrolyte balance (especially magnesium and potassium), high stress, and lack of physical movement. Improving motility involves: Stay hydrated – Adequate daily water intake keeps stool soft and easier to pass. Increase fiber – Add vegetables, fruits, and soluble fiber for bulk and regularity. B
