5 common causes of bloating + tips to help
1. Eating too quick
Actively try chewing x20 times per mouthful
2. Weak gastric secretions
Try some herbal bitters before your meals, in a small splash of water.
3. Stress
As above – stress directly depletes your stomach acid. Look into simple helps such as breathing techniques, extra magnesium which improves our resilience to stress, plus herbal options like Passiflora.
4. Drinking with meals
Drinking with your meals instantly dilutes your stomach acid, leave 15 minutes apart to keep your secretions strongly acidic.
5. Your balance of gut bacteria is off
You’ll all have heard of probiotics but for best results, put these lifestyle tips in place first, and a good prebiotic such as one rich in L+ lactic acid, so the bacteria are more likely to survive.
