Bloating may be one of the toughest stomach issues to address because it can be caused by almost every digestive issue. What causes bloating? Excessive intestinal gas. ⁠
.⁠
When bloating happens shortly after eating that’s usually a sign of digestive issues. Digestive issues can originate from everything like low stomach acid and slow motility to insufficient enzyme production and bacteria imbalances. ⁠
.⁠
People ask, “Can (fill in the blank) cause bloating?” a lot. The answer is “yes” because literally almost everything⁠
causes bloating.⁠
.⁠
Here’s what I am trying to do with this post, I am trying to help people figure out on their own what’s most likely causing the bloating because once that is realized then it can be addressed to help address the bloating. ⁠
.⁠
For example, it is very common to hear about bloating with constipation. If constipation or motility issues go away, usually the bloating does as well. ⁠
.⁠
If a person has a really irritated gut with both diarrhea, constipation, and a lot of other issues then we suggest that by addressing those together the bloating will be addressed.⁠
.⁠
It is common for a person to have a wide range of combinations of problems causing bloating such⁠
as constipation and food intolerances or diarrhea and intolerances. In a case like this, a person needs to⁠
address the dysmotility (constipation or diarrhea) as well as address the enzyme deficiencies too.⁠

I’m sorry bloating is such a difficult problem to address. It is a puzzle to solve. Please send us a DM if you⁠
have any questions.⁠
