Here’s What You Can Eat To Prevent Bloating!
We’ve all had to suffer after eating a heavy meal, where your stomach balloons up and you feel bloated beyond reason. It can be one of the most uncomfortable feelings in the world. But it turns out you can actually eat certain foods to help combat bloating:
FENNEL SEEDS
We’re used to thinking of fennel seeds as a primo treatment for halitosis (bad breath). But they are not just good for keeping your fresh breath. Fennel seeds contain a compound that has the ability to relax GI spasms. This actually relieves gassy cramps and reduces that bloating feeling. You can benefit from the power of fennel seeds by simply chewing on them or transforming them into a tea.
HONEYDEW MELON
Honeydew melon is that fruit that is often described as tasteless and just a less interesting cantaloupe. But it turns out it is actually very interesting. It has the ability to combat bloating by actually flushing the excess water from your system. It also replaces electrolytes thanks to its prodigious potassium levels.
APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
Apple cider vinegar (ACV) seems to be the home remedy cure all. It is used for so many different things, that it’s a miracle it’s never sold out. Reducing your bloated feeling is just one more of its many benefits. ACV helps to regulate your body’s stomach acid levels while keeping your gut bacteria levels healthy.
KIWI
Kiwi is a bit of an overlooked fruit. We know it tastes interesting, and it can be fun to eat. But now we know that it is also good for combating bloating. It has lots of dietary fiber which makes it great for treating chronic conditions like IBS and for moving gasses and excrement through the digestive tract.
LEMON
Lemon is a classic diuretic and detox inducing agent. This simple fruit is filled with polyphenols that not only help with weight loss, but reduce digestive tract inflammation which ultimately alleviates bloating.
