How to Get Rid of Gas and Uncomfortable Bloating

Getting rid of gas and bloating takes a little time but here are some tips that some people swear by and actually work.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Lay on the floor, stomach down and pull your knees under your stomach, raising your rear end. This really does help remove gas. Stay that way for as long as you can take it, but before your legs fall asleep!
2. Go for a walk. Sometimes gas is caused by constipation. Walking will get things moving along, and the gas along with it.
3. Laxatives. Try natural laxatives before over the counter meds. This will help remove constipation and its ugly side effects.
4. Salad. Sometimes a nice large salad full of roughage is all you need to fix bloating and gas.
5. Avoid eating foods that obviously will make you more gassy: Beer, Broccoli, Cabbage, Brussel Sprouts, etc.
6. Avoid drinking any beverages from a straw as you suck in air with the fluids adding to belly aches.

Tips & Warnings

• If you have persistent gas, you may have a serious medical problem. See your physician for advice.
