Bloating is referred to as the buildup of gas in the stomach and when this gas doesn’t pass, bloating can result into flatulence and frequent belching. A good way to relieve bloating is to encourage passing gas and bowel movement. While bloating can be uncomfortable and embarrassing, it is a natural occurrence. This is usually as a result of improper digestion or swallowed air. What is not normal is having a bloated and gaseous stomach frequently. When bloating and gas begin to interfere with your everyday activities, you need to identify remedies that will help.
