What are the best natural digestive aids?Seems that I'm punished after most meals and have intestinal distress and a quick trip to the restroom takes place (mostly in the evening). I know I have lactose (milk) interolance, so I take aid for that, and fried foods can set me off.
What natural herbs, supplements, dietary aids are available from the natural vitamin / health food stores that seem to help with the digestive process? I'm tired of loosing what nutrician I am ingest and being angry with myself for even eating. Seems like I keep getting punished for eating over & over.
Any suggestions?

Healthyhilda, that is what I am thinking...I need some natural good flora bacteria's introduced. I take a multiple B / time released to aid with the fried foods, but sometimes I still have to be careful. Now when I think of it...I remember my Grandpa would eat a small cake of yeast! each day (yep the type for baking), and swore by it. He felt that you needed a bowel mvmt every day or something was wrong. I'm not very consistant...
5 of you had ideal answers! How can I choose? Drat!!!!!!!!!!
I'm leaving it up to the Yahoo Community on this one.
Thanks to ALL for answering!
GREAT responses! Will try all suggestions, one at a time...

Punished? You're SUPPOSED to poop after you eat! It's natural. You sound normal to me.

Peppermint tea, papaya in any form (yes they make it in pills).

Since you are lactose intollerant, the thing that helps me the most is to take natural enzyme supplements. Any supplement with lactase (the enzyme that breaks down milk proteins) will help with digestion and help with cramping if you have any. Taking them on a regular basis will help also natural yogurts that contain acidopholis (spelling?) will help.

wackowoman is right...peppermint candy works well too and papaya or papain enzymes you can pick up at the market too
