8 Habits that Can Cause Stomach Bloating - Presenter and physicians who bring the show embarrasing Bodies, Dr Pixie McKenna even revealed 70 patients who have faces complaints flatulence. Sound trivial, but the trigger, said Pixie, too often consume spicy foods, caffeine and alcohol and late dinner.
However smoking and eating too much fruit can also trigger flatulence. And again, biting a pen cap also was able to make flatulence.
More specifically, Dr Pixie reveals 10 hidden causes that lead to abdominal bloating:
1. Chewing gum
Chewing gum can actually help reduce bad breath and clean teeth after eating. But behind it, chewing gum cause stomach bloating.
"Chewing gum causes flatulence because chewing increased the amount of gas in the digestive tract," says Pixie. Pixie suggest, if you have gum disease or bad breath, bite switch nuts or popcorn.
2. Uses baggy pants
Although the study noted tights often associated with decreased reproductive function, but baggy pants can cause flatulence. To that end, Pixie advised to use baggy pants only 2-3 hours, especially if you are going to a party.
3. Artificial Sweeteners
One of the hidden source that makes flatulence is the consumption of artificial sweeteners in food. Pixie says, when the body is found artificial sweeteners, gastrointestinal tract would destroy him struggling so there will be excess gas that causes bloating. check the ingredients before purchasing an artificial sweetener.
4. Smoking and biting pen cap
Sucking and swallowing excess air and saliva also cause flatulence. Especially smoking, the effect will be doubled because of the smoke affects digestion. Chemicals cigarettes also weaken the lower esophageal sphincter or muscle between the esophagus and the stomach that makes the stomach contents flowing back into the esophagus. This can cause heartburn and excess gas.
5. Stress
Pharmacists, Steve Riley said that stress affects the body's ability to digest food. "When we feel anxious, stress hormones, adrenaline and cortisol will come out and inhibit the digestive system. This can cause bloating in the long term," he said. To prevent bloating, sit while eating and chew and enjoy your food slowly.
6. Too much to eat fruit
Eating fruit is good for health. But if too many or even all the time, containing fructose or fruit sugar found in fruit can cause bloating for people who have digestive tract problems.
7. Consuming milk
If you repeatedly experience bloating after eating or drinking milk products, such as milk and cheese, maybe you have lactose intolerance, especially if accompanied by abdominal cramps and diarrhea.
It is a common digestive problems when the body is unable to digest lactose, a sugar found in dairy foods especially.
8. Medication
Many of these drugs are sold freely including aspirin can trigger bloating, diarrhea and iron pills. If you suspect a particular drug can make flatulence, Pixie advised to ask for a recipe that fits the pharmacist.
