Dealing with Chronic Bloat

Ill support the great figure. Nothing to be unhappy about there. On the bloat carbs suck in water so try going low carb for a week and see. Also you may try getting more h2o so your body doesnt hold as much... good luck.9

If bloat includes constipation, make sure you're getting enough fat ( at least 0.35-0.45g daily per pound of healthy goal weight), as well as enough fiber (mix of soluble and insoluble fiber), and adequate magnesium, in addition to the things you mention.

What does fat do to help digestion?
It has a role in throughput. It's pretty common to see people around here who've increased fiber (more fruits, veggies, grains) and cut fats as much as possible (because they're high in calories) end up with constipation. There's a balance that you need; high fat and lower fiber can also cause problems for some, I gather. I have a history of IBS-C; getting enough fat is one factor that makes a difference for me.
Fat's important in other ways that may indirectly affect the digestive system: It's needed in order to absorb the fat-soluble vitamins and antioxidants (A,D, E, K, lycopene, beta-carotene, etc.), is important for cell membranes and the nervous sytem/brain, and more.7 -
Sorry but I do not see any bloating.2

If you are having actual digestive symptoms, make an appointment with your doctor.
Thank you! Super helpful0 -
