Yoooo peeps! It's been a week since I made my first blog and wrote my first
article about myself. And honestly, I'm really confused about what I'm gonna
write on this one. I've been thinking for minutes and I think I've just find
something to share.
So, for the last few days, I'd been eating less in my breakfast time, bcs
my weight loss suddenly stopped and I didn't know why. At school, I sat right
at the position to where the air conditioner bursts its wind. Yeah you know
that this situation is very supporting if you want to have the
bloated-stomachh-experience.. ahahaha jk! You'll never want to experience that. Based
on the story above, I want to share some things to prevent y'all from having a
bloated-stomach.
1. NEVER suddenly reduce
your breakfast in a great amount - you may reduce it, but through
step by step. Why? Because it's too sudden, your stomach won't be ready. The
space which used to be filled by food, will be filled by gas produced by your
own stomach. That's why if you want to reduce your breakfast, reduce it
gradually, so the gas produced won't be too much and won't cause you any unwell
feeling.
2. Know your soon-to-face
condition - before deciding to do something, you have to know the situation you're
going to face. If you know that your teacher places you at the wind-bursted
place, you have to fill your stomach with the amount of food needed by your
stomach. You have to prepare your body well by giving it what it needs in
order to avoid uncomfortable feelings in your body.
3. Adjust your body posture
and position - if you manage to be placed/place yourself in a windy area, you have to
pay attention on your body posture. If you're sitting, bend your stomach so
there is no room for wind to fill. If you're standing, just walk away and find
something to cover you from the wind (such as wall, rock, etc).
Those are some tips to prevent the bloated-stomach. But what if you have no
chance to prevent it and the wind just succeeds in filling your belly? What
should you do?
1. Double (or even triple!)
your meal portion - if you have a bloated-stomach, it means
that you haven't eaten enough and your body is asking for more. Doube or triple
your meal portion to push the gas outside your body so your stomach will be
filled by a real food. Don't be afraid of the weight-gain! If you push the gas
by eating clean, trust me, there won't be any weights to gain. But if you cure
your stomach by eating randomly without marking on the food's fat and sugar,
you'll likely gain weight(s).
2. (Unless you can't move
due to the unwell feeling) Do exercises! - exercising will push
the gas out since you move your body. Exercising won't make your body worse, it
makes it better.
3. Drink hot water a lot - Drinking water will stimulate your metabolism since the water you drink
has to be absorbed and processed in your body through the metabolism. The more
metabolism occurs, the more gas will come out from your body, because your
internal organs' muscles will work and they will push the gas out from your
body.
4. Do not consume anything
spicy - spiciness will only stimulate your
stomach to produce more gases.
5. Do not consume any dairy
products with the lactose contain - dairy products contain lactose which can
create excessive gas in your intestine (especially for those who suffer the
lactose intolerance [they can't consume the lactose well since they have less
lactase enzyme in their body. Lactose without being properly digested will
create excessive gas).
6. Do not consume food
containing vitamin C too much - high doses of vitamin
C (more than 2000 mg daily) can cause gas in your stomach.
7. Do not consume starchy
food - Starch (carbohydrate) is difficult to
digest. In order to break it down, it takes process which can cause intestinal
gas. Starchy food includes corn, potato, bread, cereal, pasta, etc. Unlike its
'friends', rice doesn't seem to create intestinal gas.
8. Do not consume
high-sugar/fat food - sugar and fat take a lot of work in
order to digest them. The more work your digestive tract do, the more gas will
be produced. This is also the reason why you have to fill your stomach cleanly,
beside the weight-gain thing.
9. Do not consume food
containing soluble fiber - Beans, nuts, cabbage, broccoli, and
other vegetables with the similar texture contain the soluble fiber, which can
cause intestinal gas.
10. DO NOT DRINK ANY TEA - tea will cause gas formation and indigestion, so it will make your
stomach become worse
Yeahh I know there are so many things to do to cure the bloating. But if
you do it properly and correctly, I promise that your stomach will be cured and
you'll feel much better! The sign of your stomach-healing can be different from
other people. But for me, the sign is when I fart much! HAHAHAH it's disgusting
and weird ikr! Actually that fact makes me realize that everything God gives to
us is meant to be thanked. Even if it seems useless, disgusting, annoying (like
fart x))), actually it takes an important role in our health. Now, everytime I
fart, I thank God because I know that my body's condition is well and normal
XD!
I hope the tips above can help you to feel better and maintain your body's
health!
