While a bloated stomach is certainly uncomfortable — even embarrassing when it comes along with gas or the need to run to the bathroom — it might be a bigger deal than you’d think.

Stomach bloating can sometimes signify serious health problems lurking below the surface.

Having a bloated stomach is different from gaining actual fat mass around your stomach, since bloating is temporary and mostly caused by air becoming stuck around your abdomen, making it distend outward.

Luckily, in some cases stomach bloating isn’t anything to be alarmed about.

It can usually be cleared up by making some simple changes to your diet and routine

Follow the tips below to avoid stomach bloating:
* Limit the amount of milk, cheese, yogurt and other dairy products, and switch to drinking coconut, almond, soy or flax milk.
* Vegetables like broccoli, cabbage and asparagus can cause gas, due to its raffinose content, a sugar that is undigested until it gets to the large intestine.
* Avoid beans, because they contain oligosaccharide, a sugar that is not digestible by the body. You can soak dry beans before cooking them to help eliminate some of their sugars.
* Though apples and pears are rich source of soluble fiber, they can’t be tolerated by sensitive stomachs. So, if you have sensitive stomach – you should definitely avoid these fruits.
* When we chew a gum or a hard candy, we usually swallow more often, which means that we are swallowing more air. Gums and candies that include artificial sweeteners can cause gastrointestinal problems.
* Salty foods are loaded with sodium which makes you “keep” more water in your body. This means that you should lower the salt intake.
* Carbonated drink like soda and beer release carbon dioxide, which causes bloating.

How To Eliminate Bloating Effectively

1. Ginger
Ginger is extremely useful in relieving the symptoms of gastrointestinal problems, mostly due to its protein-digesting enzyme called zingibain. This powerful root will help you eliminate gas and reduce bloating! And trust me, you will be amazed by the results!

2. Pineapple
It is loaded with the protein-digesting enzyme, which improves digestion and lowers the chance of developing gas and bloating.

3. Papaya
The papaya contains high amounts of the enzyme papain, which is a protein-digesting enzyme that combats bloating and gas. Papaya is excellent for eliminating intestinal worms and parasites that cause bloating.

4. Parsley
Experts say that parsley is a natural diuretic, which means it eliminates the excess salt build-up in the body and reduces excess water weight, gas and bloating.

5. Apple cider vinegar and lemon
By consuming ACV or lemon, digestive juices will be stimulated and the body will digest nutrients better.
Just mix 1-2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a cup of water, or squeeze 1/2-1 lemon juice in a quart of water and drink it.
