Practice Presence: Remove technology and blue light (phones, TV) during meals to better recognize hunger and satiation signals. Train the Migrating Motor Complex (MMC): Allow 3.5 to 4 hours between meals without snacking to let the gut's "cleaning cycle" fully clear the digestive tract. Clinical Approach Dr. Abby Borkowski prioritizes nervous system balance and chiropractic care before moving to advanced testing like GI maps, food sensitivity screens, or hormone panels.
