What your pancreas has to do with bloating
And WHAT do about it!
In my last blog we discussed how your diet can be part of the issue with your bloating and digestive symptoms like constipation, loose stools, acid reflux or indigestion and how low stomach acid can really mess up your entire digestive system.
Today I want to tell you a NEW CAUSE of your bloating
pancreatic enzymes
If you find that starchy or high-fibre meals in general cause more of your bloating, then your pancreas might be the reason.
Women with pancreatic enzyme issues experience bloating after eating starch or fibre. They may also experience nausea and mucus in their stool.
Pancreatic enzyme deficiencies are very common after years of being on a western diet with processed foods, additives, inflammatory seed oils and stress. Blood sugar imbalances also upset your pancreas, and many of us are endlessly riding a blood sugar roller coaster from high to low.
Very often, stomach acid is also low, and we have previously talked about how good stomach acid levels also help with enzyme production.
You can take pancreatic enzymes in supplement form, but it is important to not just band-aid the deficiency, and instead work towards a better diet, stable blood sugar levels and stress reduction. This is exactly what I LOVE doing when you come on a 90 day gut reset with me!
In my next blog I'll tell you EVEN MORE steps for better digestion and less bloating so don't you dare miss it!
