In this video, we're going to talk about how to stop bloating fast.
If bloating is a new issue for you, always look at what you changed in your diet or lifestyle around the time you started experiencing bloating.
Certain foods can cause bloating and digestive discomfort, including:
• Junk food
• Sugar alcohols (sweeteners)
• Greens
• Cruciferous vegetables
• Dairy
• Keto snacks
• Fiber
Stress can also cause bloating due to high levels of cortisol, which causes inflammation in the gut.
Let's talk about the five causes of bloating in each of your primary digestive organs.
1. Low stomach acidity
Your stomach needs to be highly acidic to break down nutrients and kill off microbes that may cause you to bloat. Signs of low stomach acidity include acid reflux, indigestion, and bloating.
What to try:
• Betaine hydrochloride
• Apple cider vinegar
2. Low bile in the gallbladder
Created by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, bile acts as a detergent to break down fat-soluble nutrients. Without enough bile, you may experience serious digestive discomfort and bloating.
What to try:
• Purified bile salts
• Gallbladder acupressure massage
3. Low enzyme levels in the pancreas
Enzymes are also important for breaking down nutrients and preventing bloating.
What to try:
• Enzyme-rich foods, like vegetables
• Fermented foods
4. Poor gut microbiome in the large intestine
When your gut microbiome isn't balanced, certain microbes may overpopulate and produce gas that leads to bloating.
What to try:
• Probiotics
• Fermented foods
5. SIBO
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a condition where too much bacteria build up in your small intestine. These microbes can cause all sorts of problems, including bloating. While probiotics can be useful for a lack of gut microbes, if you have SIBO, you want to avoid probiotics and fiber.
What to try:
• Oregano
• Garlic
• Avoid fiber
• Avoid probiotics
If you're not on a Healthy Keto and intermittent fasting plan, start there. In many cases, switching to a healthier diet can be the fastest way to get rid of excess bloating.

I would suggest that walking, walking enough steps a day is super important for digestion. 15/20 minutes walking after a meal helps too.

1-Very important to stand up after eating (walking is of course better), this is why I like to wash dishes after meal, it's like a routine to force me to stand up. 2- reduce coffee, you might think it helps because it accelerates digestion but it's just screwing the natural rythm of your digestion. 3- drink frequently during the day. Water is fundamental in the process of digesting. 4- chew a lot your food (I did all those steps and it helps me a lot + I stopped cheese for dinner , since I'm French it was the most difficult part :)

@@worstfate First, I did an elimination diet (eliminate all dairy, wheat, sugar, etc.) and then added food groups one by one to see what caused issues. Dr. Berg's list on the right side of his board includes lots of what made me bloat. Everyone is different, but many of the foods I reacted to are on his list - excessive fiber, dairy, wheat, corn, etc. I discovered I needed more enzymes and acid in my stomach - Dr. Berg's Advanced Digestive Formula helped me immensely (contains betaine HCL and other excellent ingredients). I also took Dr. Berg's bile salt product, Gallbladder Formula, for a while and that helped too. Now, I just use them as needed. I make sure I monitor my eating habits and repeat the above if I start having problems again. But I've never had to go back to square one, so everything I'm doing is working for me. I wish you all success too. It's a lifelong practice with adjustments along the way!

I bloated. I found out I had stage 3 ovarian cancer. I was told by doctor I trusted at the time. I was just eating wrong (for 2 years) until I had to go to the ER when my bloat turned into 9 month pregnant look in less than a week. ER diagnosed Ovarian Cancer, tumor had ruptured. If I had listened to my "trusted" doctor and not have gone to the ER, I would have been dead before the week was out. I got surgery within 48 hours after diagnosis. Today, I am 8 years remission. I had a full hysterectemy, which could have been avoided if I had gotten tests when the bloating was not clearing up with "proper" diet. Get tests, make sure the bloating isn't something else. Get second, even third opinions. I am a survivor, but some days (because I and my husband had wanted children) I wish I wasn't. We don't make enough to adopt. I refuse to foster, in case I become attached to a child I have to give back.

[@moustafa83hamada]

Some helpful ideas...Eating a lot of food quickly can cause bloating and abdominal pain regardless of the type of food, so prepare smaller portions, take smaller bites and chew slowly...Avoid chewing gum and sucking on hard candy, as they cause you to swallow more air than normal. ...Check your dentures frequently because if they don't fit you will cause you to swallow more air when you eat or drink...Lie on your stomach and try to get the gases out...Make your stomach slowly in a downward motion when lying on your back to help move the gases down.. Drink plenty of water, and don't leave yourself dehydrated.

I went 66 years with chronic constipation and bloating so severely at times I couldn't get my breath.

I had complained to drs for years about the bloating and constipation and taken every drug out and otc out there. Finally at 66 an x-ray tech spotted the problem. I have a herniated diaphragm. Bockdalek hernia. It's flattened my right lung and my stomach and potions of intestine are in my diaphragm. After all these years and all the CT scans now the damage is beyond repair. It's caused end stage copd and the immune suppressant drugs for the other disease has caused too many issues to list. Just saying....dont always assume it's an easy issue to fix. Make sure it's not something serious before it's too late to fix.

Im also committed to a low oxalate protocol even taken all seasonings out other than quality salt. Slowly my brain/mood episodes are decreasing but I have had to be radical with my approach.

I (regretfully) drank a milkshake earlier today from a restaurant that has caused significant bloating. Now, my tummy is punishing me. I’ll be preparing my milkshakes w/ almond or coconut milk at home from now on…….. I need to consume more water.

Holy moly , thank you for this. I was born without a gladder, no one has ever told me it would be a problem

[@johndoe-hf6zn]

Thank you for the great presentation and clear outlining of these issues.

[@Drberg]

Glad to help!

[@edithart5753]

This video made so much sense, I have been suspecting the fluid retention in my intestine for such a long time. I started to sound crazy to myself, the fact that I would go through severe headaches with my right should pain radiating to my neck. Then bloating that won't budge to the point of throwing up and the I have a bowel movement and all I would do is constant urination that didn't make sense. You have literally clarified alot of things for me🥺, I was getting no help anywhere and now I can finally make sure I don't have these episodes. From childhood to my 30s have been painful 🥺. Thank you so much

[@G3LOFY]

I was scrolling through different videos that could improve my health [one of the things I wanna improve this new year] and I'm so grateful I found this channel. You truly have informative and helpful content. ☺

This is great to know for my diet and life style changes. I started making my lil life style changes too. I’m going to be walking more as well. I got me three new pairs of comfortable shoes, workout clothes and my Apple Watch. My goal is to walk 4 miles a day. Thanks for the information Doc 😁💪🏾👍🏾🔥

Drink it through a straw, to protect your teeth. Then drink some water after to cleanse your mouth.

@@ukrocksounds3419 OK.. I will.. Thanks.

[@opedromagico]

High fat carnivore diet for 4 months, 1x or 2x meals a day and just started a 144h fast to see if it helps with bloating I still have. I'm 55h already, horay! Will try the gallbladder formula too as I have pain in the area, floating stools and basically everything you said in this video. Tested for SIBO but came out negative.

[@IqmalAziz]

So you eat as minimal as you can in those 144h?

[@biduMandias]

@@IqmalAziz He said he was going to fast for 144h. Which means he won't eat anything that contains calories for that period of time.

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

Carnivore diet is such a psychotic sham. Stop with the fad diets. Nothing but meat, no grains??? Lol listening too much Joe Rogan for some other clueless nutrition influencer

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

Do you have any idea the amount of stress you put on your body when you eat a 2000 calorie meal? Do you think the body has any chance at getting all the nutrients out of that before it s**** it out?? Lol common sense

[@aleedon43]

What capsule or formula in this video to settle the Gallbladder issue?

[@saurodeepb]

Such an eye-opening video. 👌🏻

[@elizaveta9571]

This REALLY helped. Thank you so much! I’ve been struggling with extreme boating for years and now I finally know how to reduce it instantly.

You're very welcome! Glad you found it helpful.

[@adammobile7149]

BTW. I really love Dr Berg videos because he not only criticize junk food, but he is able to show clearly alternative healthy lifestyle. 👍👍👍👍

[@5MinuteBody]

For me the crucifious vegetables and greek yoghurt makes me so incredibly bloated. It's interesting because I eat strict keto 99.99999% people just don't get how I can have this effect with healthy foods. It's up to you to be the investigative doctor to understand your physical and personal needs. Dr Berg this video is so incredibly comprehensive, (even as an MD myself) thank you thank you. I will be showing my husband 🥰🥰🤓

[@MrDevikiran]

Anxiety, stress disorder might be causing it

[@lightened6445]

Most probably a lack of good bacteria in the gut

I'm in the early stages of working on my body and I would highly recommend eating slower and chewing more. When I rush through a meal it's as though I hit the reset button on all of my progress. WE GOT THIS!

Superb clarity with all reasons causing bloating. I had mid part bloating caused due to stress for more then one year took many medication, had sonography done but couldn't understand the reason behind it.Dr pls elaborate stress causing bloating and quick remedies for it as other things don't work unless you are stress free.Thanks a lot....🙂🙂
