You can reduce inflammation in your gut by taking probiotics, eating anti inflammatory foods, lower your stress levels, eat nutritious foods, exercise, drink plenty of water, and also do the elimination diet.

The elimination diet is an eating plan that omits a food or group of foods believed to cause an adverse food reaction, often referred to as a “food intolerance.”

By removing certain foods for a period of time and then reintroducing them during a “challenge” period, you can learn which foods are causing symptoms.

You can speed up your stomach emptying by chewing your food thoroughly, exercising after eating, taking a walk, drinking plenty of water or other drinks that contain electrolytes and glucose.

Also eat foods low in fiber and fat which are easier to digest and eat five or six small meals through the day instead of larger meals.

And consider eating soft and well cooked foods.

Water stays in your stomach for up to 20 minutes.

Liquids such as water leaves your stomach faster than food as water is easier for your stomach to process and break down so it does not stay in your stomach as long.

After drinking water you might need to pee within 20 to 30 minutes although you may also sweat out the water and not pee as much.

Drinks such as clear juices, soda and tea can stay in your stomach for 30 to 40 minutes.

The amount of hours without food that is considered an empty stomach is around 4 hours although it can take as long as 8 hours without food before your stomach is completely empty depending on how much you ate and what you ate.

Some foods digest faster than others but after 8 hours without food your stomach should be empty.

It is harder to digest food as you get older because as you age the process of digestion slows down and more water is absorbed from the food into the body.

Aging also comes with the lower ability to move as much as you use to which also results in less efficient blood flow through the body and bowels which lowers the ability of your bowels to work and digest food properly and as fast as it used too.
