Did you know that 70% of people regularly suffer from gas and bloating? The most surprising thing is that the solution could be in your cup of tea. Discover how certain infusions can be your best ally in maintaining a healthy digestive system.
The Digestive Power of Herbs
The secret to good digestion may lie in nature itself. Our infusions combine traditional ingredients with modern innovation to offer you maximum digestive benefits.
What is Gas?
Intestinal gas is simply a build-up of air in the gastrointestinal tract. This air can come from various sources and, although it is usually odourless, it may sometimes have a characteristic smell due to the bacteria present in the intestine.
Why Does Gas Occur?
- Swallowing air:
- When eating or drinking quickly.
- When chewing gum.
- When smoking.
- When using poorly fitted dentures.
- Fermentation of food in the large intestine: certain foods, like legumes and broccoli, contain carbohydrates that intestinal bacteria ferment, producing gas as a by-product.
- Chemical reactions in the stomach: the combination of certain foods can lead to chemical reactions that produce gas.
- Medical conditions: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or food intolerances can cause excessive gas.
How to Reduce Gas?
- Eat slowly and chew food thoroughly.
- Avoid gas-producing foods.
- Reduce the intake of carbonated beverages.
- Avoid chewing gum.
- Drink enough water.
- Exercise regularly.
