About this listen
Haas Wellness Center addresses the common issue of abdominal bloating, defining it as discomfort and swelling often caused by underlying digestive challenges. The article identifies key triggers, including excessive gas buildup resulting from swallowed air or the fermentation of high-fiber foods and, critically, various food intolerances like lactose or gluten sensitivities. Other significant causes highlighted are constipation, which increases pressure when stool is retained, and cyclical hormonal changes that cause water retention and slow the digestive process in women. To aid relief, the text strongly advocates for supplementing the diet with beneficial additions such as probiotics to support healthy gut flora and digestive enzymes that efficiently break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, preventing particles from fermenting. Ultimately, the resource summarizes that understanding these causes is essential for reducing symptoms and promoting better overall gut health.
