Some people develop belly bloat because of lactose intolerance. They can’t drink milk, eat cheese, or consume other dairy-based products because their digestive systems don’t make enough of a necessary enzyme called lactase. Think about your current diet. Does it involve a lot of cheese or milk, and if so, do you have problems with gas and diarrhea after eating these foods? Limit your consumption of dairy products to see if that helps with belly bloat. If you’re having a hard time giving up cheese completely, take a lactase supplement to make it easier to digest.
4. LIMIT ALCOHOL INTAKE
Monitor alcohol intake if you want your belly to go back to normal. Drinking too much alcohol causes fatty deposits to develop around the abdominal area. Enzymes in the stomach turn alcohol into storage-ready fats called triglycerides. This phenomenon is most common in men, which is why they are often plagued with “beer belly,” but it can also affect women.
5.
Do Yoga Exercises
To get rid of belly bloat, start doing yoga, which is effective because it works muscles and stimulates organs in the body. Doing yoga exercises at least three to five times a week can help you tame that bulging belly over time. Here are three basic stretches you can do to increase your chance of reducing belly bloat.
• The Open Triangle: Stand with one leg in front of the other, then point one arm toward the floor in front of you and the other to the sky.
• Cobra Pose: Lie face-down on the floor, then lift the front of your body upward with your hands.
• Pontoon Pose: Sit on your mat and then lift your legs and torso into a “V” shape. Reach your hands forward toward your knees.
Getting rid of belly bloat may require you to exercise consistently, take some probiotics, and consume less dairy and alcohol. By following these tips, you may start to see results in just a few months. Maintaining a positive mindset will help you be confident in your ability to get your belly back to normal. Also, remember to consult your doctor before starting a new diet or workout routine.
