Bloating Causes – You Never Thought Of
More than anything else, it’s what you put in your mouth that determines your level of health.
It’s not genetics, not your neighborhood, not how much money you have, not even exercise (although all of these can play a role too). Far and away, food is number one.
Let me tell you about Pam who had gone to the doctor last year because she was addicted to fast food and was always feeling bloated and out of sorts.
She couldn’t help herself. She thought about Wendy’s, McDonald’s and KFC all the time.
She found herself going through the drive-thru several times each week, even for snacks. She craved it late at night, and even if she resisted her craving and went to sleep, she would wake up thinking about it.
Pam’s a very intelligent woman (she’s an attorney) and logically knew that this food was horrible for her…but the addiction was overwhelming.
So she did what she thought was the right thing—went to her doctor for help.
And…can you guess?
Was given a prescription for Prozac (an anti-depressant).
Yet another of thousands of examples of dangerous, life- altering anti-depressants being handed out like candy.
Pam was smart enough to refuse it. Then she asked her doctor to look at a rash she had developed. He said, ”It’s nothing. But I still think you need Prozac.”
She walked out of his office without the drugs, but still feeling devastated and helpless against the tsunami-like power of fast food.
She just didn’t understand some facts about fast food. Fast food creators are very skilled at making their food addicting and taste unbelievably good (thanks to the chemicals they use). And not only is it addicting, but it’s grossly mis- combined and lacking in any nutritional value.
Pam finally decided to do something herself about her addictions and started doing research on how to change things around. Her results speak for themselves.
| She began eating a different way |
She no longer feels an urge for fast food. She admitted that her daughter had come home recently with some leftover fries from McDonald’s, so she thought she’d just take one. After all, she had been “good” for so long.
She spit it out because it tasted so bad. Now that’s success!

What Your Doctor
Won’t Tell You About Digestive Pain!
More than 1 out of 3 adults in the US (70 million) take prescription pills for digestive disorders and pain associated with them. Chances are if you found this blog you are one of them.
A lot of people are frustrated with their health professionals, who have not been able to give them much relief. A big percentage of people STILL experience digestive problems even with all the meds they take. Some people resort to surgery or eating bland foods or they just continue to suffer.
That’s why the Great Taste No Pain System was developed — to help people finally find reflief from their digestive problems.
One of the primary components of the Great Taste No Pain System is the science of food combining, which was first introduced into the US in 1911 by Dr. William Hay, a New York surgeon who used it to cure his Bright’s Disease, a kidney disease which was often fatal at that time.
A basic knowledge of Junior High chemistry is all it takes to see the logic behind this science: Mixing foods that require alkaline digestive enzymes with foods that require acid digestive enzymes slows and can even stop the digestive process. It can and does delay digestion by as much as 10 hours and more. This is incredibly bad for the body. The Great Taste No Pain system alleviates this problem, speeding food through your body, allowing it to absorb nutrients from foods at a much higher level.
In addition, one of the manuals in the Great Taste No Pain system, ‘Foods That Create Acid, Foods That Take It Away,’ is as clear as I’ve ever seen this data presented. Follow this simple guide and your body will use a minimum of energy in the digestion process, which leaves more energy for healing and other daily functions your body carries out.
Great Taste No Pain author, Sherry Brescia, was a former Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) sufferer herself. In fact, in 1991, she spent 7 days in the hospital with bacterial colitis.
As a health insurance researcher and Chief Underwriter, she was able to research the benefits of an alkaline- balanced body and over the next 15 years perfected the system she now calls Great Taste No Pain.

Top 3 Causes of Stomach Bloating
Millions of people suffer from the uncomfortable and sometimes downright painful stomach bloating problems. For most people there are some common denominators that cause frequent stomach bloating problems. Here are the top 3 causes.
- Eating foods your body has an intolerance for, such as gluten in flour products or lactose intolerance in dairy products.
- Eating wrong food combinations. I will explain this in another post.
- Digestion problems due to candida overgrowth. More people have this than know it.
I will briefly explain on what I’ve outlined above.
Most people with digestive issues like stomach bloating don’t know that they are having problems digesting certain foods. The foods causing many people these issues are wheat and dairy. Many people have a missing enzyme that helps digest the lactose sugars in dairy or the wheat gluten in wheat. The best thing to do if you suspect these may be causing some issues for you is to cut one of the out of your diet for a few days to see what happens.

To understand why wrong food combinations may cause bloating, you need to realize that all foods do not digest at the same rate. In other words, foods such as fruits digest much faster than, let’s say rice or beans. If you throw fruits into your stomach with foods that take a lot longer to digest, you may experience some stomach bloating or digestive issues.
Candida overgrowth affects millions of people without their realizing that it’s the root cause of their digestive issues.
Here’s an in depth review and explanation of stomach bloating and other digestive problems.
Stomach Bloating - Not comfortable
Stomach Ulcers Cured With Cabbage Remedy
Cabbage is one of the most healing vegetables you can eat. It’s a very alkaline and soothes the stomach especially if you use cabbage juice.
Who knows how this folk remedy got started but it’s been a well known remedy for all types of stomach complaints since way back. Cabbage juice (white or green) has been known to improve stomach ulcers and also other metabolic and digestive disturbances.
Taking one quart in divided doses, patients in one study, had a total healing of their ulcer in 10 days.
The duodenal ulcers of patients fed cabbage also healed in one-third the usual time. In a double blind study of 45 inmates at San Quentin Prison in California, 93 percent of the ulcers in prisoners taking cabbage juice concentrate in capsules – the equivalent of a fresh quart of cabbage juice every day – were healed after three weeks. Only 32 percent of the ulcers healed in those taking a dummy capsule. How could cabbage work? Seemingly by strengthening the stomach lining’s resistance to acid attacks.
I’d recommend you getting a juicer if you don’t have one and start juicing cabbage and potatoes and drink this daily if you suffer from an ulcer. It’s cheaper than going to the doctor and better for you than going on antibiotics, which the doctor will surely put you on. The antibiotics will upset your normal flora in your intestines and other problems can occur.
Do your own experimentation if you suffer from stomach ulcers or frequent burning sensation in your stomach. It can’t hurt and it just might do you a world of good!
Colon Cleansing For Stomach Bloating?
| 10 Days To New You |
Try not to eat food before going to bed. It’s really best not to eat anything after 6 or 7 pm in the evening. It just makes sense because your digestive system is winding down for the day. This is also a tip that will help you lose weight.
Alcohol must be avoided when cleansing. Also try not to drink too much coffee. Herbal teas help clears the body of toxins so are a good substitute. Eating a breakfast with plenty of fiber in the morning with a cup of herbal tea helps the cleansing process. Here’s a delicious muffin recipe that has fiber and other things that helps sweep gunk out of your colon:
Organic Zucchini or Carrot Nut Muffins
Makes 12 muffins
1 cup of gluten free flour (get this from vitacost.com very cheap)
½ cup flax seed meal (get flaxseed and grind them in a small coffee grinder)
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon backing powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup honey
½ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
¼ cup virgin coconut oil
1 cup grated zucchini or grated carrots
