Bloating...

A very common issue for many, especially females.

Bloating comes from when the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is filled with air or gas, making the abdomen feel tight, swollen and filled with pressure. People experiencing it can feel only lightly uncomfortable or actually be in moderate pain that can affect their everyday activities.

Gas is a common cause of bloating and it can build up in the digestive tract when undigested food gets broken down or when you swallow air.

Eating and drinking too fast so you are swallowing excessive air is a common cause of bloating. Smoking, chewing gum, having IBD (irritable bowel disorders) issues, food intolerances, weight gain, mental health issues and eating disorders can all be causes of bloating also.

Changing lifestyle habits like giving up chewing gum or smoking or making an conscious decision to slow down when eating can all help issues of bloating.

However, often more serious issues can be the root of the problem so make sure to contact a healthcare professional if problems are persistent and affecting your day to day activities.

Caffeine is something we all consume in our day to day lives. Each of us probably consume more than we realise too. Caffeine is in coffee, tea, soft drinks, energy drinks and even chocolate and all in varying amounts.

Caffeine is a stimulant and can boost energy, your heart rate and improve focus and energy to differing effects. It is commonly used as a stimulant to start our day, before big meetings or exams or before exercise and the gym.

Caffeine affects each of us differently and can stay in our system anything from 4-9 hours. If you have your last coffee late in the day than expect that coffee to still be affecting you later that night when you go to bed.

Tips for limiting the affect of caffeine:
1) Try have your last high caffeine item no later than 3pm in the day.
2) Read packaging to see how much caffeine is in other items you are consuming such as soft drinks and energy drinks.
3) Swap caffeinated teas for herbal teas, especially later in the evening.
4) Try to drink a glass of water for every caffeinated drink you have throughout the day.
5) Know what affects you and your own body.
