Why might you feel abdominal bloating?

I am going to explain some points that you should take into account and you can check in detail:

It is important to have a balanced and adequate diet, providing quality food in the right quantity and necessary for our body. Prioritizing that in our dishes there is a good amount of vegetables and come well accompanied by proteins of high biological value and quality carbohydrates. It is important that there is a good contribution of healthy fats and fermentable fiber in our day to day. Although depending on each person we will have to adapt and individualize their diet, since their demands and needs will be different.

It is important to assess that we are providing the body with the necessary nutrients so that it can perform vital functions and have enough energy for digestion, enhance muscle synthesis (muscle formation), breathing … Have the necessary vitamins, minerals, complete supply of protein … so it is also important that you can check how your diet is with a health professional.

"It's not so much the quantity of food, but its quality."

An uninterrupted feeding during the whole day, that is to say, to be consuming food, drinks… will not allow you to make a proper digestion and a good digestive rest. Consequently, you may experience a greater feeling of abdominal bloating and inflammation. Since the body can not act properly.

It may be that there is an imbalance and dysregulation in the intestinal microbiota, in this situation it is necessary to recover an adequate state of microorganisms in the intestine, also addressing the cause of this imbalance so that the digestive function is again correct and improves intestinal discomfort.

It is important to promote movement and physical activity, since in addition to the multiple beneficial effects it has on our body, it enhances the proper functioning of our body, also improving digestion and the state of the digestive system, and that will affect the other processes, over time, to work better.

"You have to keep in mind that each person is different and you have to individualize each case and be able to approach it in a more precise and detailed way to achieve your goal."
