Everything You Need to Know About Bloating
from Practical Nutrition Hosted by Achieving Your Best
“Bloating” seems to be a term used often to describe a certain feeling after eating, or really any time of day. According to Johns Hopkins, as many as 1 in 3 of otherwise healthy people complain of occasional abdominal bloating. A large number of Americans say they suffer from this regularly, even when they haven't eaten a large meal. In some cases, bloating can become severe enough that it causes distention, or a noticeable swelling of the abdomen. This feeling is often tied to not only what you eat, but how you eat.
