Bloating, gas, smelly farts, and other digestive symptoms often all have different root causes and different solutions.

Healthy digestion starts with strong stomach acid. Your stomach acid should have a pH between 1 and 3 to properly break down protein and help control microbes. Low stomach acid is one of the most common causes of gas and bloating.

Most gas is produced by microbes in the large intestine. When these microbes migrate into the small intestine, they can begin fermenting food, leading to SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). Bacteria and fungi thrive on sugar and starches, contributing to gut inflammation, pain, bloating, and digestive discomfort. The carnivore diet can be beneficial for people dealing with SIBO.

Betaine hydrochloride can help to restore stomach acid, but it should be avoided if you have a stomach ulcer. Intermittent fasting is a great way to support digestive health while helping reduce bloating and gas.

If your bloating gets worse as the day goes on, stress may be a contributing factor. Long walks, quality sleep, and nasal breathing can help support gut health. L. reuteri also supports gut health while increasing oxytocin, which can help support a healthy stress response.
