Stomach bloating and weight gain.

And it might not be you’re eating too much.

Could it be because of poor digestive health?

Do you get bloating gas and abdominal pain after eating?

How to overcome bloating?

Keep reading to find simple and effective ways...

Gut health can be a result of food intolerances…

Stress and food choices.

Like hundreds of thousands of women, you could be suffering from stomach bloating.

Bloating could be triggered by fluctuating hormones or by eating certain foods.

Stomach or abdominal bloating is a condition in which abdomen feels uncomfortably full.

And tight, may be visibly swollen.

Sometimes bloating can be caused by a simple glass of water…

Often, bloating is related to gut health…

It might be a condition such as irritable bowel syndrome.

This affects almost one in seven (1 in 7) westerners…

Research shows it can be an oversensitive gut.

Which leads to problems with bowel function.

And this can trigger bloating...

As well as stomach cramps, constipation or diarrhea.

While most women’s stomachs may swell just a couple of inches.

Others’ can actually double in girth in just one day.

Only to ‘deflate’ overnight until the next “attack”…

Not everyone’s stomachs will react in this way.

Some women say they feel a constant pain (uncomfortably swollen).

So what could be behind a fluctuating waist?

That uncomfortable bloated feeling and what can you do about it?

Fluctuating Hormones

Hormonal fluctuations during a woman’s monthly cycle are a common trigger for bloating.

But while many women might put it down to ‘fluid retention’…

The cause is actually relaxed muscles.

Many women find they are bloated before their period.

And this is due to an increased level of progesterone.

During ovulation, the ovaries produce more progesterone.

And it causes muscles in the abdomen to relax.

Everything (i.e. organs) aren’t packed as tightly, causing a woman to look bloated.

It tends to get worse just before the menopause.

The muscles in the bowel relax.

Meaning are less efficient at moving food along the gut.

This can cause constipation, triggering further bloating.

It’s possible to overcome this by eating more fiber.

A Healthy Diet

Anything “healthy” is often a cause of bloating.

High-fiber foods, such as cereals, beans.

And pulses cause bloating by fermenting in the gut.

Don’t force yourself to eat lots of brown bread, bran.

And vegetables if they are crucifying you.

Healthy snacks are another problem...

Many people spend all day snacking on large amounts of fresh fruit, nuts.

And seeds all of which ferment in the bowel.

This may cause problems in healthy women.

And those with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Edamame beans are notorious for causing bloating.

Yet people eat them because they’re healthy.

Dieting can also cause bloating if you stick to a high-protein diet.

Such as the Atkins or Dukan.

People wonder why they are bloated and constipated?

Yet they are on a high-protein diet getting very little fiber.

Which is what we need to go to the loo regularly.

Antibiotics and other medication

A lack of ‘good’ bacteria in the gut can lead to bloating.

Good bacteria, also known as the gut flora.

Help to stimulate the digestion to keep the gut cells healthy.

But taking antibiotics, cortisone, chronic medication, contraceptives…

And/or suffering from food poisoning.

Can disrupt the delicate balance of bacteria, causing bad bacteria to proliferate.

This imbalance means you’re more likely to be sensitive to foods that ferment in the gut.

Causing bloating and gas.

Probiotics can help restore the balance of good bacteria again.

Stress

There is clearly a link between the brain and the gut.

And so stress can make any digestive symptoms more severe.

In irritable bowel syndrome, this connection is exaggerated.

And the gut is oversensitive to factors such as stress, diet, hormones and bacteria.

In fact, stress is one of the biggest triggers for the condition.

Undiagnosed Coeliac Disease

Coeliac disease, which is an allergy to gluten, can cause uncomfortable bloating.

Although it’s not clear why.

Whereas irritable bowel syndrome is basically a plumbing problem.

Allergies are caused by a problem with the immune system.

The problem is the symptoms can be very similar to irritable bowel syndrome.

And many people go undiagnosed for years.

Other symptoms that may help differentiate coeliac disease vs irritable bowel syndrome…

Include unexplained anemia, fertility problems and joint pain.

Millions of women suffer from undiagnosed coeliac disease…

If you feel there is some signs to indicate food intolerance or allergy.

Get a food diary and take note for seven days.

Take notes when exactly you ate

What reactions or symptoms you had (if any)

When they appeared and grade from zero to four in terms of severity.

The feeling of bloating.

Is this actually impaired gut bacteria?

Very few people realise digestive enzymes can also be a contributor.

If you want to control bloating…

You’d want to cut the fuel supply to the “bad” bacteria in the gut.

Simply eliminate as many processed foods as possible.

Especially 50% sugar and 50% fat mixtures which are very addictive.

And difficult to stop eating because of their effect on our brains pleasure and reward system.
