Flatulence Causes and Remedies

There are a number of reasons for flatulence causes. Some can be more or less harmless while others may indicate a serious illness.


Coffee consumption causes bloating and frequent bowel movement in the body. Often, when eating or drinking air "swallowed" (aerophagia) adds to the air collection in the body. Also the consumption of carbonated drinks is absorbed gas which is then released into the intestinal tract. Additional causes on stomach bloating are:
    
    
  • Consumption of foods such as onions, cabbage, legumes or white bread
  • An out of balance intestinal flora
  • Hasty food consumption
  • Swallowing air, for example by chewing gum
  • Mainly vegetarian diet (rich in fiber and cellulose)
  • Lack of exercise

The digestive process can be caused by microorganisms in the intestinal gas. This is the case, if not sufficient, and the secretion of gastric juice for digestion of the pancreas. Then the protein decomposed by bacteria in the gut and there are foul smelling gases. The fermentative dyspepsia is very similar. Here, certain carbohydrates such as fiber are not digested. They go on through the bacterial activity in fermentation with gas production.Similarly, certain sugars (saccharides) can lead to bloating. This is often the case with milk sugar (lactose), fruit sugar (fructose), sorbitol, xylitol and maltitol.
This is not sufficient digestion is called malabsorption. These include maldigestion, where the food is not sufficiently digested, and malabsorption where the nutrients are absorbed incompletely. The causes of these diseases in the stomach, pancreas, liver or bile ducts, and intestine itself lie. Even irritable bowel syndrome can be the cause of flatulence. 
Stress factors can also lead to tension in the muscles therefore hindering the escape of gases and causing pain.

Anyone who suffers from stomach bloating can try to treat flatulence with a few home remedies initially. This home remedy for flatulence will not only help in the relief of bloating but also prevent flatulence. 
Avoid foods that generates gases inthe body as much as possible. These foods include cabbage, onions, legumes, fresh pastries and carbonated beverages. 
- Medical Diagnosis. Lactose intolerance sufferers who after eating dairy products may experience flatulence, bloating and abdominal cramps. Lactose intolerance sufferers should be careful of the food types they consume.
- Chewing your food thoroughly. Those who do not chew enough or too fast may overwhelm the stomach. If the pieces of food are too large, they not only remain long in the stomach but may also come to pieces in the large intestine where to begin to ferment them. This process leads to gases being released and then flatulence. Proper chewing can help avoid the build up of gases and reduce flatulence
- No late night meals especially before going to bed because the food will be improperly digested and can lead to bloating and indigestion problems.
