Over 50% of people suffer from bloating but may not even be aware of relating it to being a sign of digestive issues.
Digestive issues can present themselves with a wide range of symptoms such as:
- Bloating
- Fluctuance
- Acid reflux
- Constipation
- Diarrhoea
GP’s commonly diagnose people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is a collection of digestive symptoms that are persistent and for which no apparent cause can be identified by conventional medical tests.
- Bloating – can be caused by an imbalance between good and bad bacteria in the gut. As food ferments it produces gas. This build-up of gas can cause bloating, which can be uncomfortable and painful.
- Food intolerances – are a major issue with many people I see in my clinic. Food production has changed greatly in the last 50 years, many more chemicals are added to foods and our bodies simply can’t process them.
