To help reduce bloating all day, keep these guidelines in mind:
·Keep your sodium intake at a minimum and opt for fresh food over processed. For example, fresh turkey breast will have less sodium than processed, packaged turkey.
·Limit your alcohol intake. When you drink too much, you can get dehydrated, which will result in your body pulling in fluid.
·For bloat as a result of constipation, focus on foods that hold water, such as wheat bran or all-bran cereal.
·Your lifestyle can affect bloating, so make sure you get enough sleep and get in at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day to keep fluid moving in your body. If you travel often and sit on a plane regularly, or just sit at your desk all day, make sure to move your legs or take a lap around the office every hour.
·If your stomach struggles aren't tamed by these foods that help with bloating — and it's becoming a chronic problem — consult a physician.
