Bloating Stomach is the problem which most of the persons face in their
lives in light or in severe form. It is related to heaviness in the stomach
leading to irritations. There are many things which could cause it, but
fortunately a little care can prove to be a good remedy.
Bloated stomach is basically a medical term used when a person experiences
some sort of heaviness or fullness in the stomach. It is a sort of feeling
where a person feels weighted down or overloaded. It seems a very uncomfortable
feeling. The question is why does it happen? And how to prevent it? The answer
of the second question lies in the first one. If we are successful in
diagnosing the reasons of Bloated
Stomach we will surely reach to its remedies.
When we question "why does
it happen", it provides us many reasons. It may happen due to the gas
trapped in the small intestine, which may cause flatulence and irritating
stomach ache. It may cause a very uncomfortable feeling if you wear tight clothes.
Digestion problem is also one of the main causes of Bloated stomach. Many other reasons may include: intestinal gas, peptic
ulcer, constipation, anorexia, overeating, trapped wind, water retention, smoking,
indigestion, and Dysmenorrhoea in women. There are some other ailments which
could cause Bloated stomach. In
women it could cause due to Premenstrual syndrome, Menopause, irritable bowel
syndrome, ovarian cancer. It can also be caused due to food intolerance. On the
other hand deficiency of the Hydrochloric acid and lack of digestive enzymes in
the stomach can cause it. For a healthy stomach we need a good amount of
intestinal flora which is a good bacteria present in the gut. It helps in the
digestion process, so if it is not in good amount it could cause bloated
stomach. Whatever may be the cause, but it results in bad digestion which
results in the form of bloating.
Before answering "how to
prevent it" I would like to highlight some bloating stomach
problems in babies. Bottle feeding cause gas and discomfort in babies due to digest
lactose and other nutrients in the milk formula. Many babies are found caught
in gas and bloating problems because they gulp air while feeding. To avoid such
problems you must burp the baby after feeding. The mother's diet also causes
gas in the baby who is on mother feed. Food sensitivity among many children can
also cause bloating. Dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt also cause it,
so introduce them to the children slowly. Also avoid excessive use of beans and
broccoli because they are said to cause gas leading to bloating.
Now the question is "how to
prevent it". For this you can go for home remedies or could consult a
physician. Many herbs such as Sweet Fennel, Pasque Flower alleviates the
bloating naturally. On the other hand Burdock (Arctium lappa) is known as the
natural cleanser which detoxifies the digestive system. It helps in relieving
gas and strengthens the weak digestive system and eliminates Stomach Bloating and constipation. If you still face serious bloating
problem you must consult your doctor because it may lead to complications.
