Bloating can provoke different causes. In the case when such a phenomenon happens rarely, this is easily explained by the fact that the food you eat is poorly absorbed in the body, and instead of digesting it wanders and forms gases. Also, flatulence can occur when a person consumes dairy products. This can be due to the fact that there is little enzyme in the body called "lactose", which is what is needed to digest milk and its derivatives. As a result, lactose, also called milk sugar, is fermenting in the body.
Products such as seeds, legumes, nuts, oats, honey, cabbage, shakes and fruits, can also be poorly digested. They have coarse fiber, and can cause bloating. A greater probability of this will be in the case when this food is fast, to eat too much, without chewing well at the same time.
In addition, flatulence can occur with food allergies. Such cases are characterized by the appearance of a cold and rash. This serves as a signal that immunity does not work as it should work, in this case the body has a low resistance to external influences.
The cause of bloating, among other things, may be factors that are not explained only by a poor process of digesting any products. The main cause may be hidden in the disease and in this case, flatulence is a consequence of the disease. In such circumstances, it is necessary to consult a specialist to investigate and establish the true cause, which can provoke the formation of gases in the intestine.
Diseases accompanied by bloating
Syndrome of irritation of the intestine. This disease is characterized by excessive sensitivity to food, therefore in the large intestine may appear spasms. The stump masses can not move further, resulting in constipation. When the walls of the intestine are subject to stretching, the formation of gas increases.
If you have a constant bloating, it can serve as a signal to such diseases: dysbacteriosis, appendicitis, intestinal obstruction, cholelithiasis, diverticulitis, obstruction of the urinary tract, swelling or ulcer in the intestine. In these cases, to combat meteorism is useless - you should pay attention to the true reason. When the disease is healed, the body will return to normal and bloating will cease.
It makes sense to turn to alternative medicine, if there are no diseases, and all methods are tried. In our time, the science of psychosomatics is gaining momentum every day. It is aimed at understanding the deep nervous processes that occur in the body. Psychosomatics says that any reactions and diseases of the body are due to incorrect nerve impulses, and most importantly - if there is a desire, it is controlled. And when there is no impulse, then the disease is correspondingly absent. The fact that in this there is a grain of truth, speak of the results of cures.
According to the statement of this direction of nontraditional medicine, flatulence is explained by the fact that a person refuses to accept any life situations and there is fear. Often it is the fear of change. Louise Hay, a woman who cures even an oncology in this way, speaks of this as an animal horror, a fear, a restless state. According to her, complaints and grumbling are present here. The main reason for this may be hiding in unrealized. There are dreams, ideas, and their implementation is missing. CM. Peunova, a specialist in psychosomatics in Russia, attaches great importance to the fears that are the cause of the disease. On this topic, even a separate book was written.
The author has cases in life experience, which give confirmation of this theory. My colleague was very worried about the fact that her brother chose a woman who did not like her. After the wedding feasts, she had severe pains and spasms in the intestines, which did not pass even after taking the pharmaceutical preparations. The woman suffered for three days and after that she turned to her friends for advice. One of the girlfriends asked if there were any situations in the woman that made her feel unwell, which she did not accept? Naturally, the situation was as in the palm of your hand. And then the girl made a verdict - the woman will be sick until she ceases to worry. The woman, having thought well, decided not to get sick, and resigned herself to her brother's wedding. Practically in an hour the pain let go and ceased to appear. This case is a vivid illustration of the fact that all nerves are from the nerves.
And for people who believe only in the material ways of getting rid of the disease, below are some practical recommendations.
Treatment of bloating
Extremely useful walks after eating. Movement accelerates digestion, increases peristalsis, and promotes the release of hormones that increase this activity.
Avoid eating very hot or very cold food, and remove from your diet fizzy drinks. During the consumption of such products, air is involuntarily captured, which is the cause of the appearance of gases in the intestine.
Use sorbents. These substances contribute to the removal of gases from the intestine and stomach.
Drink herbal teas. One of the options: brew chamomile, peppermint and fennel. The degree of formation of gases will be significantly reduced.
Thoroughly chew food. In this case, less air is captured, and digestion begins already in the mouth, with the help of saliva enzymes. And further digestion will go easier.
Good in such cases, dietary fiber, if flatulence is associated with spasms. Fibers have the property of softening the contents of the intestine and reducing bloating. Eat more cereals and vegetables, avoid dairy products and yeast bread.
It is necessary to reduce the number of food stimulants taken. They provoke excessive excitation of the gastrointestinal tract. This category of products includes tea, coffee and chocolate. Fat can also cause spasms and disrupt digestion.
Women should take into account premenstrual syndrome. The reception of magnesium, vitamins of group B and potassium positively acts during this period. They help to reduce bloating. Track your reaction to various products. And also it is recommended to make records in which data on reactions will be entered. And trace the reaction of the body when you exclude the use of such products.
It is also recommended to diagnose the disease. This is important to do because the measures that you use to prevent bloating can affect the clarity of the overall picture, and you have a chance to start the disease.
Several folk methods of treating bloating
You can brew a bay leaf, chamomile and peppermint as tea. Drink this broth before eating half a cup. You should be careful with the laurel leaf, as it can provoke bleeding.
In ordinary tea, you can brew a piece of ginger root or its powder. It relieves spasms, and it tastes good and strengthens immunity.
Exercise in order to improve the work of the intestines: strain-release the stomach about 10-15 times. This exercise can be done near the table, leaning on it, or lying down.
Try to reduce the amount of food consumed. In some cases, the cause of flatulence can be overeating, then the stomach can not cope with the amount of food.
