The main causes of gas after eating meals
Eating too quickly: Most people are not aware that you are actually supposed to chew all mouthfuls of food 40 times minimum. This especially applies to carbohydrates which are primarily broken down in the mouth, not the stomach. Many times if you were to just begin chewing all your food more thoroughly before swallowing you would find that you feel much better for it.
Drinking liquids with food: Your stomach acid needs to be un-diluted to work properly. What does everyone do though? We all drink water and liquids with our meals thinking its perfectly fine. The truth is you shouldn't drink any liquids for 30 minutes before a meal and for 2 hours afterwards. Small sips is OK to help you swallow food at times, but gulping liquid is completely out of the question.
Lack of good gut bacteria: You may notice all the yogurt commercials on frequently constantly promoting the beneficial bacteria in the yogurt. The reason for this is that this beneficial bacteria is crucial to proper digestion. In fact if all the beneficial bacteria in your body were to die you would die as well. We're intrinsically linked and if the good bacteria in your body is in a bad state then so will you. One of the main suppressors of good bacteria in the body is a toxic diet high in refined flour and sugar, which fuels the growth of the natural enemy of good bacteria, candida albicans.
Most people are not aware that candida albicans is the most common cause of not only digestive problems, but allergies, asthma. It even affects the brain and is one of the most commonly linked causes of add and ADHD. In fact one symptom known as brain fog is perhaps the most common symptoms experienced by a candida sufferer. It creates a feeling of constant spaciness and an inability to focus 100%. The best thing you can do to discover if you are at risk of candida is by taking an online questionnaire.
