The post 3 Foods to Eat if You’re Feeling Bloated appeared first on yourdailysportfix.com.
]]>It’s important to be aware of what actually makes you feel bloated in the first place. If it’s dairy or broccoli then it’s best to avoid those and find another food that can help you to feel better. You can also bloat after over-consuming salt and under-consuming potassium, so if you tend to eat a lot of restaurant meals with hidden salt you will also feel bloated. Drinking lots of water is the first step to de-bloating and so is eating one of these three foods.
Ginger
The anti-inflammatory properties in ginger work amazing for bloating and gas. It contains a digestive enzyme that helps the body break down protein and has a soothing quality on the entire digestive system. Enjoy ginger tea before or after a meal to help with digestion and bloating.
Avocado
Avocados are high in healthy fats, potassium, and antioxidants, and they break down fiber and reduce bile acids helping you to de-bloat. Eat half an avocado in a salad or on some toast for a healthy breakfast.
White Beans
Whilst most beans actually tend to bloat you, white beans have high levels of potassium that can help to balance out the sodium level in your body. They’re also high in fiber so they will improve digestion and give you regular bowel movements. Enjoy them in soups with lots of vegetables for a tasty protein-packed lunch.

]]>The reality is, though, that our bodies fluctuate throughout the day. The problem is, when we only see those “perfectly” flat stomachs on social media, we might subconsciously feel insecure when our stomach looks different after eating a nourishing breakfast—even though it’s totally normal!
Thankfully, people are showing off their bellies before AND after eating, to show the world that it’s okay. We love that people are promoting “normal” bodies on social media because it helps spread body positivity. It also shines a light on the fact that most of what we see on social media is carefully curated and not always an accurate view of what people look like throughout the day.
These posts show the side-by-side of their stomach when they first wake up, and then after eating. You can see that there is a difference, often their stomachs are a bit more full or plump-looking, which makes sense because their stomachs are full of yummy food!

I made an effort to look “nice” by evicting the birds that were living in my hair, brushed out the mats and actually washed it, applied some makeup and put a decent outfit together lol. 
Sorry birds you’ve gotta find a new home now! 
. Don’t get me wrong, I love myself like this or when I’m in my tracky dacks with mats in my hair …but it does feel good to get done up every now and then… ESPECIALLY now that I’m a mum and most of my time is spent being devoted to Mia and work. . I believe it’s important to do something nice for yourself every so often. There’s not usually much time to do so but if I make the time I feel so much better and can my tackle day-to-day life so much better! It’s amazing how much having mat free hair and applying some makeup can make me feel.

. .Skye managed to attract 2.6 million followers over the years, and one of the things they love about her the most is the fact she’s not constantly trying to paint a perfect picture of her life. She’s extremely open about all the changes her body is going through and ready to embrace each one.
That’s why the famous fitness influencer didn’t catch us by surprise when she shared a candid photo of her bloated belly, taken only a few days after her body was in perfect shape.
“Don’t stress about the occasional bloat – it is totally normal so try not to beat yourself up about it as most of us get bloated from time to time! It can be hard sometimes (believe me I know) but try to love yourself through the good and the bad,” wrote Emily Skye on Instagram, but she reminded her followers it’s important to visit a specialist if they’re dealing with excessive bloating on regular basis.

]]>Feeling full right after you’ve finished with your daily dose of fitness activities is not the feeling you want. If you’ve been struggling to understand what causes you to notice these symptoms, maybe we can help you understand.
First, let’s clear things up. Working out will not make your stomach bigger. But, there are several other factors and habits of yours that you do before a training session that might.
One of the most common mistakes that people do is not breathing properly. Learn to inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. If you take gulps of air, it will accumulate in the stomach. Another thing you want to avoid is eating right before you work out.
Whenever you feel uneasy, stretch. Light stretches can activate the digestive system and help with the symptoms. Make sure that you track what you eat on the days when you feel bloated. You will discover which foods are causing you problems.
