Where does bloating really come from?
Bloating is caused by excess gas in the digestive tract. But this gas can have several origins: aerophagia, intestinal fermentation, microbiome dysbiosis, slow transit, irritable bowel syndrome, or hormonal fluctuations in women.
Foods that promote bloating
Cabbage, legumes, onions, garlic, certain fruits high in fructose, lactose for those who are intolerant, sweeteners (sorbitol, mannitol): all fermentable foods to monitor in cases of frequent bloating.
Natural remedies that really provide relief
Peppermint
Peppermint essential oil is one of the most effective remedies for intestinal spasms. It helps relax the colon's smooth muscles and reduces cramps.
Fennel
A classic carminative plant, fennel helps expel intestinal gas and reduce its production. Fast action on post-meal discomfort.
Ginger
Ginger stimulates gastric motility and speeds up stomach emptying. Particularly effective after a heavy meal.
Activated charcoal
Activated charcoal captures gas in the intestines before eliminating it. Fast action on gas-related bloating.
Probiotics
Certain probiotic strains (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis) are particularly well documented for reducing bloating and improving digestive comfort.
