Lee Galasso mentioned suck retraining increasing the effectiveness of peristalsis, starting from the tongue and down through the gut. Since many different techniques get lumped under "suck training" that I would love to hear more specifically about her approach, which seems to yield up such good results, if she's able to share on this topic.
