Top #26 Best Ways To Beat Bloat~Banish Your Belly...

#26 Excessive Gas from Bacteria Common causes of bloat are irritable bowl syndrome (IBS) and  constipation. However there are other causes for bloating. If you suffering from chronic  bloating you should see your doctor.  There are several reasons that the bacteria in the gut may cause excessive amounts of gas causing bloating.
1. The amount of gas bacteria produces varies for each individual. Some people may have more bacteria or bacteria that produces more gas. 
2. Poor digestion/ absorption of the food in the small intestines. This means more undigested food reaches the bacteria that live in the colon. The more undigested food the bacteria have to feast on the more gas they produce. Poor digestion/ absorption of food in the small intestine may be caused by.. Lactose intolerant (lactose is found in dairy products) Sorbitol intolerant (sorbitol is commonly used  sweetener in low calorie foods. Fructose intolerant (fructose commonly used sweetener, candies, and drinks. Pancreatic insufficiency (lack of enzymes that break down food) HCL deficiency (insufficient stomach acid) Celiac disease   
3. Bacteria overgrowth can occur in the small intestines. Bacteria is usually confined to the colon (large bowl) However, sometimes bacteria will spread into the small intestine (bowl) In the small bowl the food is still being digested, which means that the bacteria have a lot more undigested food on which to feast on than they would in the colon, and this is what produces a lot of gas. This is know as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)
