No More Digestive Problems: The Answers Every Woman Needs–Real Solutions to Stop the Pain and Achieve Lasting Digestive Health

weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;color:000000;background-color:ffffff;”>At times we’ve all experienced that burning sensation in our stomach after eating too
much of our favorite spicy food or the occasional bloating that keeps us from zipping
up our jeans. We usually know the cause is our stomach, but most people know very
little about how their stomach and their digestive tract actually function.

In fact, a lot of misconceptions about stomach health have confused people about how to
handle their stomach pain. Here are the some of the most common myths and facts about
your stomach that just might help you deal with that next tummy ache.

Myth or Truth #1:
“Eating less food can shrink the stomach”
MYTH. As an adult, the only way to shrink the stomach is through surgery. After a
certain age the size of the stomach stops changing.

Myth or Truth #2:
“All digestion occurs in the stomach”
MYTH. Digestion occurs in both the stomach and the small intestines and foods are not
digested in the order they are eaten. Everything you take in lands in the stomach. The
stomach then combines everything together and breaks it into pieces called chime. Then
it is released in batches into the small intestines, where the majority of digestion
occurs.

Myth or Truth #3:
Skinny people have smaller stomachs”
MYTH. Weight does not determine a person’s stomach size. There are people who have had
weight battles for most of their life whose stomachs are smaller than or are the same
size as people who are naturally thin.

Myth or Truth #4:
“Foods with insoluble fiber cause less gas and bloating than those with soluble fiber.”
TRUTH. Soluble fiber, which dissolves in water, is considered the “gentler” form of
fiber and is found in oats, beans, peas, and citrus fruits. Insoluble fiber does not
dissolve in water. When you take in soluble fiber, it is digested by the intestines
and interacts with the intestinal flora. This is what causes gas and bloating.

Insoluble fiber, however, is not digested at all. It goes right through the intestines
without interacting with the flora; therefore there is no gas or bloating. Insoluble
fiber is found in whole-wheat bread, wheat cereals, beets, and carrots.

Myth or Truth #5:
Acid reflux can be reduced by losing weight”
TRUTH. Heartburn can be relieved by losing as little as two pounds. When there is less
weight in the stomach, the acid that flows back up into the esophagus is also lessened.

Myth or Truth #6:
“A meal with some fat will typically keep you full longer than a meal with no fat”
TRUTH. After eating a meal that contains a minimum amount of fat, we feel full longer.
This is because fats remain in the stomach longer because they digest more slowly than
carbohydrates.

In addition, eating simple carbohydrates like crackers or cookies makes blood sugar and
insulin levels rise quickly, and subsequently drop quickly too. This causes dramatic
shifts in both mood and appetite. A strictly simple-carbohydrate-diet is more likely to
make you hungry more often.

Myth or Truth #7:
“Eating beans causes gas and it can’t be avoided”
MYTH/TRUTH. Proper digestion of beans requires a certain enzyme because beans are high
in a certain kind of sugar. The level of this enzyme in the body differs from one
person to the next. If you have less of this enzyme than what you need to digest beans,
then you will have more gas. However, there are some products, which add more of the
enzyme needed to digest beans and other gassy vegetables properly.

If you experience an occasional or more frequent stomach problem such as gas or bloating,
there are natural digestive aids that may help. Utra-Zymes is one
of the most comprehensive natural digestive aids available. It contains 18 enzymes that
go to work fast to help you digest foods easily, and get relief from burning, bloating,
gas and heartburn. healthychoicenaturals.com


weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-transform:none;color:000000;background-color:ffffff;”>According to the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG), up to 11 percent of
Americans say they frequently feel bloated. Another 7 percent of Americans complain
of excessive belching, and others feel gassy and pass gas more than 20 time times a
day.

Excessive gas is not only uncomfortable — it’s also embarrassing. If bloating,
belching or excess gas is affecting your life, find out these common causes and what
you can do to avoid them.

1. Swallowing Too Much Air

When too much air is swallowed, it will be passed as a belch or gas, or return to the
stomach, where it can cause bloating. Normally, about half of passed gas comes from
swallowed air, but when too much air is swallowed this amount increases.

The following habits can affect the amount of air you take in:

Eating too fast
Gulping beverages
Using a straw to drink
Chewing gum or sucking on candy
Wearing loose-fitting dentures
Feeling nervous
Smoking

2. You’re Stressed

Stress hormones increase during times of stress which can cause your stomach and colon
to go into spasms and create gas. Also during times of stress we tend eat for comfort
and choose “junk foods” which usually include fatty, salty snacks and sweets and can
lead to even more bloating.

3. You’re Eating Too Much Fruit

Some people are fructose-intolerant and their bodies cannot digest the sugar properly.
If you find you have excess gas and bloating after eating fruit, this may apply to you.

People who are fructose-intolerant do not have to cut out fruit entirely, but rather can
eat it in small servings, or choose lower-fructose fruits, like cantaloupe and apricots,
instead of high-fructose fruits like apples and bananas.

4. You’re Not Exercising Enough

Exercising helps the body absorb gases in the colon. And aerobic exercise for at least
30 minutes will help to prevent constipation by helping food to move through the
digestive tract more quickly.

5. You’re Eating “Gassy” Foods

Certain foods do produce more gas than others, and everyone varies in their ability to
absorb and tolerate the gas that’s produced. If you’re sensitive, you may want to reduce
your intake of these foods:

Lima beans, baked beans and lentils
Broccoli, cabbage and brussel sprouts
Grains and high fiber foods
Fatty foods

6. You’re Lactose-Intolerant

Some people have trouble digesting the milk sugar lactose because they do not make enough
of an enzyme (lactase) that’s needed to breakdown lactose. Lactose that is not completely
digested will pass to the colon where it will be broken down and turned into gas.

How to Avoid or Reduce Gas and Bloating

Exercise Daily
Manage your stress
Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly
Don’t drink through a straw, and sip, rather than gulp, your beverages
Quit smoking
Pay attention to foods and drinks that cause you discomfort, then avoid or limit them
