Abdominal bloating not only looks bad but can also cause physical discomfort.
Causes of Bloating
- Too little fibre, fluids, and physical activity can lead to constipation, which can result in bloating.
- Food allergies and intolerances can cause gas and bloating.
- Eating quickly and not chewing your food well can cause air swallowing that leads to bloating
- The fizz in carbonated drinks (even diet ones) can cause gas to get trapped in your belly
- Chewing gum can also lead to swallowing air, which can cause bloating.
- Highly processed foods tend to be high in sodium and low in fibre, both of which can contribute to that bloated feeling
- Eating beans, they can cause that gassy feeling and even cruciferous family of vegetables, such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower.
- Instead of three big meals per day, try eating smaller meals more often. This can keep you free of the bloated feeling that often follows large meals
