Today, we’re going to talk about how to get rid of bloating and abdominal distension.
The major source of stomach bloating is microbial fermentation. This is the chemical breakdown of carbohydrates by a microbe. These microbes have the ability to breakdown fiber, whereas the body can’t.
When the microbes breakdown these undigestible fibers, they turn them into some interesting things:
1. SCFA (small-chain fatty acids)
2. Lactic acid
3. Methane
4. Hydrogen
5. CO2
6. Nitrogen
7. Hydrogen sulfide
What you can do to help reduce bloating:
1. Adjust or eliminate your consumption of certain carbs/fiber like:
• Fruit
• Garlic
• Onions
• Asparagus
• Milk
• Yogurt
• Beans
2. Add a good probiotic
3. Try certain foods to reduce bloating:
• Fennel
• Ginger
• Anise
• Peppermint
4. Take apple cider vinegar or betaine hydrochloride
