Why do we bloat and how can we stop itWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Its caused by water retention, it is a very common premenstrual sign!.

Exercise!. When PMS strikes, fight the urge to sit around in your sweats and watch chick flicks!. Women who exercise generally report fewer PMS symptoms!.

Skip the salt!. Restricting sodium in the last few days before your period can reduce bloating, fluid retention, and breast swelling and tenderness!. So put away your saltshaker!. And pay attention to less-obvious sources of sodium, including condiments, such as soy sauce, and processed and prepared foods, such as canned vegetables, soups and deli meats!.

Try smaller meals!. Nibble on five or six small meals, instead of three big ones!. Just make sure these smaller meals include plenty of fruits, vegetables and whole grains!.

Or they sell medicine that you can take that helps bloating like Midol
