Top 10 foods that cause your stomach to bloat
After every meal, you just need to unbutton your pants! Know that this problem can definitely be avoided by reducing your consumption of certain foods such as...
cabbage
The Crusader family is not an ally for the bloated.
These are foods that tend to ferment in the digestive tract, leading to gas and digestive discomfort.
For a flat stomach, we avoid it!
legumes
Lentils, peas, kidney beans, white beans, red kidney beans, chickpeas… Legumes are full of benefits, but they are not the benefits of a flat stomach!
Like sprouts, they are fermentable foods, which means they ferment in our stomachs.

raw vegetables
Raw vegetables are great for your figure in general, but they tend to bloat in your stomach.
Therefore, for a flat stomach, do not consume much and chew for a long time!
White bread
White bread leads to stomach bloating, due to poor digestion and can cause digestive disorders.
If you love bread, but are tired of your flat stomach, simply replace it with whole wheat bread, it provides twice the amount of insoluble fiber, which facilitates intestinal transit, plus it gives you a feeling of fullness faster.
In the same way, you prefer pasta, rice and whole biscuits.
Banana
Bananas promote gas formation and tend to constipation!
Therefore, to lose the tummy, give preference to fruits that are easy to digest, such as apples.
You can still eat them, but wait until they are fully ripened to better digest them.
Dairy products
Milk and dairy sweets contain lactose, a substance that must be digested by enzymes and lactase.
In some adults, this lactase is not present in sufficient numbers, which makes milk particularly difficult to digest.
If you are in this situation, instead consume yogurt made from fermented milk. They contain good bacteria that aid digestion by balancing the intestinal flora.
French fries
Foods that are too fat make you fat, we know that
But fried foods also tend to cause bloating and slow down intestinal transit.
Consume them in moderation!
cold meat
