bloating

does anyone know anything that really works with bloating?

Yes I do: The first step is understanding what is causing your bloating, and this could well be food intolerance. Have a look at this post. the video explains why we bloat and what causes it: sickofibs.com/ibs-triggers/...

Hope this helps you,

hi allison,

thank you for getting back to me, i'm just new to this although I've had it for years I've actually never done anything about it as i was embarrassed about confronting the matter. The doctors have put me on 2 types of tablets for spasms. I feel like these aren't really helping and in fact making me more bloated.

Hi Abbey,

It's great that you are looking for information and are actively looking for a solution By the way, if you feel the antispasmodics aren't helping, it could be a good idea to stop using them.

Look up Monash University Low Fodmaps way of eating and give it a try as it is undoubtably what you are eating which is causing a problem. If you get the app from Monash it will guide you through how to find out what it is. This is not a quick fix and will take time.

You could start by cutting out dairy and or gluten and see if that helps.
