When the intestines fill with gas, cramps or severe pain may occur. You may also experience a bloated, tight feeling, or abdominal distension. The pain caused by gas varies from person to person, but it can be as intense as appendicitis, gallstones, or heart disease.

Constipation and certain foods can increase gas buildup in the body. While people reportedly pass gas up to 30 times a day, it's common for everyday factors, including food, to contribute to increased gas buildup in the intestines. Medical News Today, a medical media outlet, has introduced an easy way to relieve gas.

 

Fart comfortably Holding in gas can cause bloating, discomfort, and pain. The easiest way to prevent this is to avoid holding in gas. If gas doesn't pass, consider constipation. If constipation persists or the pain is severe, medical attention may be necessary.

 

bowel movement =A bowel movement usually expels gas trapped in the intestines.

 

Eat slowly Eating quickly or while moving can cause you to inhale air, which can lead to gas-related pain. Sitting still and chewing your food more thoroughly than usual can help prevent uncomfortable symptoms like indigestion and bloating.

 

Don't chew gum =You tend to swallow air when you chew gum. Gum often contains artificial sweeteners that can cause bloating and gas.

 

Don't use straws = Drinking beverages through a straw or from a bottle or can can cause you to swallow air. It's best to drink from a glass, sip by sip.

 

No smoking =When you smoke, you inhale air.

 

Avoid carbonated drinks =Carbonated drinks can increase gas in the stomach.

 

Avoid gas-triggering foods Artificial sweeteners like aspartame, sorbitol, and maltitol, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower, dairy products, fiber supplements, and legumes like beans and lentils can all cause gas. Keeping a food diary can help you identify which foods cause the most gas.

 

herbal tea = Anise, chamomile, ginger, peppermint, etc. are helpful. Anise in particular is good for gas caused by constipation.

 

fennel seeds =It's a popular digestive aid worldwide. Some animal studies suggest it may help protect the lining of the digestive tract.

 

peppermint supplements Some people take peppermint oil capsules to relieve bloating, constipation, and gas. Uncoated capsules may dissolve too quickly in the digestive tract, causing heartburn. Peppermint oil inhibits iron absorption, so capsules should not be taken with iron supplements. They are not suitable for people with anemia.

 

clove oil Traditionally used to treat digestive problems such as bloating, gas, and indigestion. Taking clove oil after a meal can increase digestive enzymes and reduce gas.

 

 

heat Placing a hot water bottle or heating pad on your abdomen can help relieve gas pain and discomfort. The heat relaxes the intestinal muscles, helping gas pass through the intestines.

 

apple cider vinegar = One study found that apple cider vinegar can help manage functional dyspepsia, including bloating. Adding a tablespoon of vinegar to a glass of water and drinking it before a meal can help prevent gas pain and bloating. Remember that vinegar can erode tooth enamel, so it's best to rinse your mouth with water afterward.

 

activated carbon Charcoal traps gases and removes them by expelling them from the body through stool. It's recommended to consult a doctor before taking activated charcoal.

 

Probiotics = Increases beneficial gut bacteria. It is effective in treating various digestive complaints, including infectious diarrhea. Some studies have shown that certain probiotic strains can relieve symptoms such as bloating, intestinal gas, and abdominal pain.

 

work out =Moderate exercise, such as walking or yoga, helps eliminate gas.

 

Deep breath Deep breathing has a positive effect on the autonomic nervous system and can even aid digestion. It doesn't work for everyone. Swallowing too much air can lead to gas.

 

Gas discharge posture =Exercises such as yoga poses or squats that bring your knees up to your chest can help reduce gas.

 

Gas trapped in the intestines can pass through the intestines and disappear within a few hours. Home remedies, such as exercise or dietary changes, can help you feel better more quickly. If the pain persists or is severe, it's recommended to see a doctor.

      소화가 잘 안 되는 게 이 가스 때문인가 봐요
