Gas and Bloating

 




Gas and bloating can be highly uncomfortable and next to constipation; it is one of the most common complaints. 

 

Several reasons could cause gas and bloat:

Examples include constipation, enzyme deficiency, food intolerance, food allergy, food sensitivity, imbalance in the microbiome, and poor diet.  Identifying why or what causes bloating can be frustrating. 

 

What can you do? Start with Colon Hydrotherapy, cleanse your colon, and flush your colon of any impacted stool. Do you feel better after colon hydrotherapy if you are experiencing constipation and impacted stool? If you do, Constipation may cause your gas and bloat.  Work on constipation and work toward building a healthy Microbiome. 

 

This next section is for you if you have gas, bloating, and regular bowel movements. Keep a food log, identify food within 30 to 3 hours after eating, and pay attention to your body. There are several resources to follow up on what may be giving you the bloating and swelling. Like Dr. B says, eliminate the food for a period of time and reintegrate it back in SLOWLY. It is about inclusion, not elimination. 

 

Limiting our diet causes allergies and sensitivities. The more diverse food we eat is a sign of a healthy gut.

                    What Are Electrolytes and How Do They Affect Your Digestion? We've all heard that electrolytes are essential for staying hydrated, especially during intense physical activities. But these essential minerals do more than just help us replenish fluids. They are also important for regulating nerve and muscle function, balancing pH levels, and aiding in digestion. So, what exactly are electrolytes, and how do they affect your digestion? In this post, we will explore these essential minerals and their importance in maintaining a healthy digestive system. Firstly, let's define what electrolytes are. Electrolytes are charged minerals that conduct electrical impulses in our body, helping to regulate various functions. Electrolytes are primarily found in bodily fluids like blood, sweat, and urine. Some of the most important electrolytes include sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and chloride. Now, let's talk about how electrolytes affect your digestion. Elect

The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems

  The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems Understanding the human body involves understanding the systems that keep it functioning optimally. Two of these systems are the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which are integral parts of the autonomic nervous system. They ensure the body's internal functions run smoothly and adapt to various situations - whether we're calm and relaxed or facing a stressful event. The sympathetic nervous system, often referred to as our 'fight or flight' response, kicks into gear during times of stress, increasing heart rate and blood pressure, while diverting blood flow from non-essential functions like digestion to more critical tasks. This can result in slowed digestion and alterations in the gut microbiome. Conversely, the parasympathetic nervous system, or our 'rest and digest' response, predominates in times of relaxation. This system promotes digestion by stimulating the production of digestive enzyme

Histamines: How They Impact Digestion

   Histamines: How They Impact Digestion   Histamines are molecules that play an important role in our immune system. They are responsible for triggering an inflammatory response to protect us from harmful foreign substances. However, histamines can also have a negative impact on our digestive system if they are not properly regulated. In this blog post, we will be shedding light on the truth about histamines, what they are, and how they can affect your digestion. We will also discuss ways to manage histamine levels to improve gastrointestinal health.   As mentioned, histamines are a natural component of the immune system. They are produced by mast cells, which are found in various tissues, including the gastrointestinal tract. When the body encounters a potential threat, such as an allergen or pathogen, mast cells release histamines into the bloodstream. This causes the blood vessels to dilate and increases blood flow to the affected area, leading to swelling, redness, and oth
