Eating a lot of refined carbohydrates, such as bread, pasta, potatoes and rice, is one of the most common causes of bloating!. These foods break down into sugar quickly, and sugar, when worked on by acids, ferments and creates gas!. In addition, people who suddenly increase their consumption of fiber will often feel bloated because the gut reacts by producing additional acids and flora, a byproduct of which is gas!. So if you've recently changed your diet to one that revolves around refined carbs or have increased your fiber by adding more fruits and vegetables, you're likely to be at even greater risk as your system struggles to get used to processing the different foods!. When you alter your diet, Riley explains, "you have to re-educate your whole system!. In the process of things sorting themselves out, you may have some symptoms of bloating!." But most of the time, he says, the discomfort abates as the body adjusts!.

Highly refined sugars cause bloating in the exact same way, says Kravets, "because sugar is easily fermented by bacterial and fungal organisms in the gut, which produces gas and alcohol!." Grains and sugars are what cause beer and champagne to fizz, so you can imagine what the combination can do to your GI system!. Studies have shown that as many as 61 percent of patients who suffer from chronic bloating and other GI discomforts have detectable levels of alcohol from maldigested and malabsorbed carbs, Kravets says!.

So what is the proper diet!? There isn't one across-the-board answer!. But according to Kravets, bloating may be reduced--even avoided--by a few simple steps!. First, cut back on (or eliminate) simple sugars!. Then, take a probiotic (such as acidophilus, available in the refrigerated sections of natural food stores) to increase the beneficial organisms in your digestive system!. If you do increase your fiber, do it slowly!. Drink plenty of water, and strive to maintain good and frequent "bathroom" habits!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you choose to drink a lot of fluids, go to the bathroom to pee often!.!.!.
but in any case, try not to drink as many fluids!.
