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 Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.
