6 HEALTHY HABITS THAT CAUSE BLOAT
KALE
Um, are you telling me that my daily kale salad filled with protein, iron, antioxidants, and basically magic is making me bloated? Maybe. Kale is high in something called fructans—fiber molecules found in carbohydrates that cannot be absorbed by the small intestine.
FRUIT AFTER MEALS
Patting yourself on the back for ordering the fruit plate for dessert rather than that warm, melty cookie? Not so fast. One of the reasons why fruits are praised as a healthy food group is because they offer a lot of good (an array of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fibers) without a lot of bad. You see, the sugars in fruit are super easy to digest; they essentially become an instant source of energy for your body to burn.
PROBIOTICS
Probiotics are made up of different strains of bacteria, which feed the healthy flora in your gut and create a strong, diverse, vibrant microbiome. They are one of the top five health recommendations any holistic doctor will give you to help with almost any health issue. Bloating and abdominal pain is one of the symptoms probiotics can help alleviate, but, at first, they can actually make it worse.
NUT MILK
Whether you drink it because of the taste, because you’re a proud vegan, or because dairy makes you feel icky, nut milk may be the culprit of some of the belly bloat you’re experiencing. Many almond milk brands these days use carrageenan, a thickening agent that has been found to cause all sorts of gastrointestinal issues (as serious as stomach ulcers) and can cause bloating for many people.
GUM
Chewing gum is a triple threat when it comes to belly bloat. To start, as you’re smacking your gums, you’re also swallowing a good amount of excess air that has been found to cause both abdominal pain and bloating. At the same time, this chewing mechanism signals to your body that food is coming, stimulating the production of digestive enzymes and stomach acid that will then sit there all dressed up with nowhere to go.
