Have you ever had the feeling that there is no room left in your stomach. And your stomach feels full and tight. It can be uncomfortable and sometimes even painful. If you have then you know just how annoying it can be having to deal with bloating.

Research shows that gas producing bacteria in the upper GI tract can cause bloating and abdominal discomfort. For decades, members of the medical community focused on alleviating abdominal discomfort by targeting the colon. The upper GI track was never considered a possible source of symptoms.


The bacteria use hydrogen as fuel and produce methane gas as a byproduct. This gas acts as a paralytic, limiting movement in the GI tract, which allows bacteria more time to feed on starches and produce additional hydrogen. The bacteria then uses this additional hydrogen to produce even more methane gas, which continues the cycle. Since the body doesn’t absorb methane gas, most of the gas gets trapped, causing distention in the GI tract and bloating. As it moves down into the colon, the gas works as a paralytic agent, sometimes causing constipation.
