Bloating

Rumbles and grumbles in your belly? How about gas or even pain? Bloating is a condition where your belly feels full and tight, often due to excessive gas production. Sometimes it can be due to a chronic medical condition, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or leaky gut syndrome. The professionals at Natural Radiance have solutions for you that work with your body to heal itself.

Abdominal bloating occurs when the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is filled with air or gas. Most people describe bloating as feeling full, tight, or swollen in the abdomen. Your abdomen may also be swollen (distended), hard, and painful. Bloating is often accompanied by:

• Pain
• Excessive gas (flatulence)
• Frequent burping or belching
• Abdominal rumbling or gurgles

Abdominal bloating can interfere with your ability to work and participate in social or recreational activities. Bloating is common among both adults and children.

Gas is the most common cause of bloating, especially after eating. Gas builds up in the digestive tract when undigested food gets broken down or when you swallow air. Everyone swallows air when they eat or drink. But some people can swallow more than others. But more commonly, the gut itself produces gas during the digestive process. You may be sensitive to certain foods and your body will react badly. Eating the wrong foods is as bad as the way you eat them. Eating disorders can contribute to bloating symptoms.
