Most of us are familiar with the unpleasant feeling of being bloated. It can happen after we eat specific foods or have slower bowel movements. And sometimes, it can be a symptom of an underlying health condition.
To take a closer look at issues related to gas and bloating, we’ve invited a special guest this week: superstar gastroenterologist and ZOE’s U.S. Medical Director Will Bulsiewicz.
In today’s short episode of ZOE Science & Nutrition, Jonathan and Will ask: What are the main causes of gas bloating, and how do we stop it?

This made me think about when you change an animals food, you are always recommended to introduce it slowly. Build the new food amount up slowly. Yet we tend to go for a normal size portion of something new then wonder why it causes issues!

Excess of burping is my problem and I don’t even swallow air. There is a kind of fermentation in my stomach that generates that gas, and consequently, non-stop burping.

@@linngu2594it's a blowing into a device that holds the air & measures components. There are 2 types of SIBO identified so far, hydrogen & methane. It's obvious (to me) the methane smells like rotten eggs & the hydrogen has no odor) Some Drs treat with antibiotics, some with dietary changes & natural constipation relief substances, such as small doses of cascara sagrada. For many with IBS increasing fiber can make it worse. Also 2mg Xylitol gum every 12 hours has helped many reset microbiome. Only gastroenterologists & functional medicine practitioners with specialty in GI tract are best bet to test & solve the issue.

I am perimenopausal and the imbalance in my hormones has caused gut dysbiosis resulting in food intolerances, digestive problems such as diarrhoea, chronic constipation, gas and bloating. Taking lactose free dairy problems has helped with the gas and bloating, but my constipation was only resolved when I followed Dr. B's advice (given in another podcast) and started to take magnesium oxide supplements. Now that I have regular bowel movements I have been able to ramp up the fibre and also reintroduce many foods into my diet. I love that man :)

I would like to say as a Newby to the ZOE program I am enjoying the detailed scientific content and also doing random tests using the Glucose sensor. I find this very revealing. Amongst the various entertaining videos I recently watched was a couple of Dr. Will Bulsiewicz. These referred to acid reflux and also gas bloating. As someone who has had a passing interest in food, nutrition and the body generally, I have often tried to understand why these uncomfortable conditions occur. One habit I have observed in people and one which I was guilty of was the way lunch or dinner is consumed. Eating food quickly results in unmasticated food elements. These enter the stomach and are then churned for a while in the acidic environment. However this is the crunch, many people including myself then wash all this down with a coffee or mug of tea. This is disastrous as the food is then prematurely washed into the small intestine and then the colon. I am convinced that this then causes massive fermentation to occur resulting gas formation and acid reflux. Hense, the lucrative demand for anti-acits tablets. To test this theory, I started drink first; wait a while and then eat. This has worked for me.

I'm 62yrs. and a twin. Both my sister and I have suffered with diarrhea, constipation or incomplete evacuation for many years. After trying many different diets and testing positive for lactose intolerance, a gynecologist said that my present problems were due to a fibroid which cannot be removed !! I have since accepted this and I make sure I eat a variety of foods, with soft veg. like spinach and courgettes with every meal. This helps. I'm also wondering if there are others who are twins and suffer with their digestion since childhood.

@r8chlletters Жыл бұрын

Fibroids can be removed but they generally don’t do it because they typically grow back. I’d schedule a CT (if you fake appendix pain they will do one for you quickly). When I had my scan they discovered very large ovarian growths and that was the cause of all my issues. They also removed a huge fibroid as well so it didn’t interfere with future scans…my advice is go find out what is happening. It saved me.

I was told my large fibroid couldn't be removed because it was between the outer and inner layers of my womb. I was offered an ablation of the womb. Afterwards the fibroid was gone. It might be worth asking about an ablation. I was told, at the time, that they basically microwave the inside of the womb. I personally, haven't noticed any decrease in bloating, wind or diarrhoea since having the ablation 16 years ago.

We (me and wife) started with lactose free milk about four months ago and it has made a real difference. We are in our mid/late 60s and have eaten dairy produce all our lives and the decision to start using lactose free milk was an experiment as much as anything...precisely as an attempt to deal with my gas and bloating. We have now extended to lactose free spread (butter) and lactose free soft cheese spread. My wife had already gone gluten free some years ago, but I have not taken that step.

I cured my constipation by repopulating my gut microbiome. That was the fix. Exercise helps me too especially movements that exercise the torso. Jogging is incredibly effective but top quality running shoes that fit are essential to protect the knees. Also working up to getting distance and speed needs to be slow. Jogging round the house for a few weeks first for instance then going for short easy jogs is what I do. Good to see tips about swallowed air and food though. It all helps. I avoid Lactose, Gluten, Alcohol, Caffeine and Nitrites(not nitrates) I also avoid foods high in vitamin K like brassicas such as broccoli and kale. I eat a very varied diet including fish, meat, veg, salad, blanched hazel nuts, fruit etc.

Roast potatoes lead to bowel gas within 20 minutes with me, Not french fries, Fish-shop chips or other potato preparations. The stomach contents will not have travelled far in that time, so some messenger molecule in the upper digestive tract must be passing on a signal to produce lower bowel gas. It may be some form of epoxidized fat on the crispy part of the potato.

I suffer from excessive gas that doesn't give me bloating as such but goes to press on a nerve on any part of my body and give excessive pain, when I try to relieve the gas, the pain start to go away. I have tried several things like exercises, alkaline food to remove acidity walks, but nothing has stopped it except that the gas shifts from one position it used to press to another position. Once it was my lower right hand side abdomen, then I thought I had appendicitis, but the doctor found out it was Gas, then it changed to my right side shoulder blade, then now on my left side hip. I don't take dairy for the past 15 years or more but still the gas won't abate. I don't experience constipation, our food in Nigeria contains a lot of fibre. So I wonder why I generate so much gas that travel to any part of my body and cause pain.

I am having gas , bloating and feeling full most of the time. In my upper restpertory track I cannot pass the gas belch and have difficulty with this it feels very uncomfortably. Sometime I am gasping to breathe and I am now starting to feel nauseated. I have no gallbladder and a complete hysterectomy. What can I do to heal from this? My mouth especially my tongue feels dry as well.

Maybe it's acid reflux or gastritis?

I have the exact same issues. Unfortunately; not solved yet. I was diagnosed with gastritis months ago and also GERD. I also found out I have parasites as I saw them in my stool. You could also have parasites.

I find that digestive enzymes taken before eating make huge changes in a number of causative factors such as constipation or reactions to foods that are high in inulin for example. This includes difficulty in digesting raw foods/cellulose.

People with Acid Reflux don't actually have Reflux in the mouth, that's something different. Acid Reflux makes your stomach feel like cramping and is seriously painful. Im not sure what's happening with you but don't take medication for Acid Reflux when you don't have it.

If it is swallowed air, how come it comes out for me, up to 18 hours later... belching. It does NOT go out the other end. There is no way in hell that it is air that I have swallowed due to the vast amount of gas I burped for hours on end (but always many hours after my last meal) and the fact that it comes out so many hours later instead of within an hour of eating each meal.... something doesn't add up here.
