But as the day goes on, it feels like you could be six months pregnant because you\u2019re so bloated! This is a really common complaint I get from clients. It\u2019s super uncomfortable, especially if you\u2019re not able to just switch into sweatpants and lie on the couch. When I help my clients with digestion, the most important part is to figure out WHY they\u2019re experiencing the symptom so that we can fix the root cause (like food sensitivities, lack of enzymes, stress, or an imbalance of bacteria to name a few).<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.healthyeatingandliving.ca\/post\/the-5-worst-foods-for-bloating\">foods commonly cause bloating<\/a>. If you experience bloating, it\u2019s worth minimizing these foods, or experimenting with eliminating them for a short period of time to see if it makes a difference. Everyone reacts differently, so figuring out what works for you is important.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime though, there are some items that can help alleviate the discomfort. These are super easy to have in your pantry and can provide some quick relief..<\/p>\n<h4>Ginger Tea (or Ginger Chews)<\/h4>\n<p>You might have heard of this one, but <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/traditional-medicinals-organic-ginger-tea_8650.html\">ginger tea<\/a> is perfect to have after a meal that\u2019s made you feel slightly uncomfortable, or even just instead of having a sweet dessert. If you\u2019re not a big fan of tea, there are some healthy ginger chews you can try. Of course, these still have some sugar in them, so go easy on how many you \u2018chew\u2019 \ud83d\ude42. I like the brands <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/brand\/the-ginger-people.html\">Gin Gins (by The Ginger People)<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/brand\/chimes.html\">Chimes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Lemon Juice<\/h4>\n<p>Lemon juice helps stimulate your stomach to produce stomach acid. Bloating is often caused by low stomach acid which prevents you from properly digesting all of your food, so anything that increases stomach acid tends to help with bloating. I recommend you <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/lemon-juicer_70369.html\">squeeze the juice of 1\/4-1\/2 a lemon<\/a> into some warm or room temperature water and drink it upon waking.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure that you use fresh lemon, not the packaged lemon juice because that has been pasteurized and therefore doesn\u2019t contain the same enzymes and nutrients that are so beneficial for digestion.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_50444\" style=\"width: 693px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/well.ca-bloating-article-lemon-water-1-683x1024.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50444\" class=\"wp-image-50444 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/well.ca-bloating-article-lemon-water-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Lemon Water\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-50444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anything that increases stomach acid tends to help with bloating<\/p><\/div>\n<h4>Chamomile Tea<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/stash-organic-chamomile-tea_8659.html\">Chamomile tea<\/a> actually serves a dual purpose when it comes to bloating. Not only is it soothing on digestion, but chamomile is also soothing for stress \u2013 one of the main reasons for digestive upsets! I love having a <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/traditional-medicinals-organic-nighty-night-tea_7885.html\">passionflower\/chamomile tea mixture called Nighty Night<\/a> which is a slight sleep aid. Chamomile tea can also help with acid reflux too!<\/p>\n<h4>Fennel<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/frontier-natural-products-organic-whole-fennel-seeds_85985.html\">Fennel<\/a> falls into a class of herbs called a carminative, which is intended to either prevent the formation of gas in the GI tract or help eliminate the gas. Fennel seeds have been used for thousands of years in India to help with bloating\u2014they chew a small number of <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/frontier-natural-products-organic-whole-fennel-seeds_85985.html\">seeds<\/a> after a meal, which is said to not only stimulate digestion but also freshen breath!<\/p>\n<p>You could also use a <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/pukka-three-fennel-tea_119852.html\">fennel tea<\/a> by steeping one teaspoon of the seeds in hot water for five minutes. Then strain the seeds from the tea and sip slowly.<\/p>\n<h4>Peppermint Tea (or fresh mint leaves)<\/h4>\n<p>I\u2019m sure you\u2019re seeing a pattern by now. There are lots of <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/categories\/tea_682.html\">teas<\/a> that can help with bloating, and <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/stash-premium-peppermint-herbal-tea_7878.html\">peppermint tea<\/a> in particular is great for IBS symptoms too! If you don\u2019t have any <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/traditional-medicinals-organic_7886.html\">peppermint tea<\/a> on hand, you can also chew on a mint leaf. Peppermint acts as an antispasmodic and a relaxant in your GI tract, helping to relieve bloating.<\/p>\n<h4>Apple Cider Vinegar (unpasteurized)<\/h4>\n<p>If I\u2019m at home, this is my go-to choice as it\u2019s even easier than a cup of tea, believe it or not! All you have to do is take a little shot &#8211; about a tablespoon &#8211; of raw <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/filsingers-apple-cider-vinegar_72891.html\">apple cider vinegar<\/a>. You can also mix it with some water and your symptoms should resolve very quickly. Similar to lemon juice, the apple cider vinegar helps to simulate the production of stomach acid. I find this to be a stronger alternative to lemon juice.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_50445\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/well.ca-bloating-article-acv-1-1024x683.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50445\" class=\"wp-image-50445 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/well.ca-bloating-article-acv-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Foods for Bloating - Apple Cider Vinegar\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-50445\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mix apple cider vinegar with some water and your symptoms should resolve very quickly<\/p><\/div>\n<h4>Activated Charcoal<\/h4>\n<p>Last but not least is the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog-well.ca\/beauty-buzzwords-activated-charcoal\/\">oh-so-trendy activated charcoal<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/organika-activated-charcoal-powder_118974.html\">Activated charcoal<\/a> usually comes from coconut husks. There\u2019s not a lot of research on its effect on bloating and gas; however, anecdotally many people swear by it. It\u2019s thought that the charcoal binds to acids causing the discomfort. So that you can pass them in a regular bowel movement, essentially eliminating the bloating.<\/p>\n<p>Activated charcoal comes in <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/organika-activated-charcoal-powder_118974.html\">powder form<\/a> as well as in <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/organika-activated-charcoal_109789.html\">capsules<\/a>. Keep in mind that if you\u2019re taking other supplements or medications, the charcoal will likely bind them as well, making them less effective.<\/p>\n<p>If you try these remedies and still experience bloating, it might be time to think a bit more about what\u2019s causing it. I find an imbalance between good and bad bacteria to be very common in my clients. A <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/pure-encapsulations-probiotic-5_109686.html\">high-quality probiotic<\/a> can help with that, especially one with acidophilus.<\/p>\n<p>Mindful eating is critical too. How often do you sit down to eat your meal while multi-tasking? If your brain isn\u2019t focused on eating, your body won\u2019t do everything it needs to for digestion, leaving you feeling bloated. Make sure you turn off distractions while eating and then focus on chewing your food more than you typically would. This also helps make sure the food is properly digested.<\/p>\n<p>Do you have any other tips for bloating?
