<p>Food that has not been broken down enough via digestion can lead to bloating, gas, and discomfort as it moves through the intestines. It all starts in the mouth as enzymes in our saliva start breaking down the starches in our food, then stomach acids begin the process of digesting protein. Once the food enters the small intestines, pancreatic enzymes continue the breakdown process, and bile from the gall bladder works on the fats.</p>
<p>All of the nutrients are then absorbed through the walls of the small intestines, and whatever is left over enters the large intestines. It is in the large intestines where the microbiome feed off any of the undigested food particles – and this is what commonly leads to digestive discomfort. This is how supplements that support the body’s natural process of digestion and elimination, can address discomfort and bloating.</p>
<h3>Tips to address bloating and gas</h3>
<ul>
<li>Chew your food completely before swallowing – this kick starts the digestive process.</li>
<li>Don’t dilute your stomach acid by drinking large amounts of water with meals.</li>
<li>Give your body time to digest each meal and try not to snack throughout the day.</li>
<li>Add a dash of apple cider vinegar to warm water about 30 minutes before your main meals.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Supplements and herbs to address bloating and gas</h3>
<ul>
<li>Bitter herbs such as Angelica, Gentian, and Goldenseal support healthy secretion of digestive juices.</li>
<li>A digestive enzyme supplement is a great option to support the breakdown of foods. If you notice discomfort and bloating after eating certain food types, there are food specific enzymes available. Pepsin supports healthy protein digestion and Lactase supports healthy dairy digestion.</li>
<li>Probiotics, the good bacteria that live in your gut, can support digestion, and keep the gut lining healthy. A healthy microbial gut balance supports a comfortable and flat tummy and provides <a href="https://www.healthpost.co.nz/health-concerns/digestion-detox/digestive-immune-support/">Digestive Immune Support.</a></li>
<li>Calming herbs such as Chamomile, Lemon Balm, Fennel, and Cinnamon support the specialised muscles in the digestive tract to relax, supporting comfort.</li>
