Green powders can eliminate the bloating caused by solid vegetables like broccoli and spinach because they are digested faster.

Additionally, green powders containing soluble fibre and probiotics that produce lactic acid in the gut can help to reduce bloating from solid and liquid diets.

For example, adding green powder to your meal replacement shake can reduce bloating and improve digestion and bowel movements.

Green powder could be the perfect solution if you aren't getting enough vegetables and fruits in your diet because they make you bloat.

Green powders to fix bloating

The bloating, gas, and digestive distress from green vegetables are some of the biggest reasons people skip them at dinner.

But passing up on greens and fruity goodies can make you deficient in many of the vitamins and minerals your body needs for maintenance.

Green powder dissolves into water or any other liquid, so your stomach can move it into your digestive system faster than solids. The net result is less bloating because your stomach isn't as full.

Another fantastic thing about green powder is it contains digestive enzymes and antioxidants that boost your gut's microbiome thanks to an extensive superfood ingredient list (which differs depending on the brand).

Prime examples include the flaxseed and chicory root soluble fibre in Braincare Smart Greens, which promote healthy digestion and reduce gas formation. Chicory root is excellent at this because it has the prebiotic fibre inulin.

What causes bloating?

Bloating is usually caused by gas in the gut, with food and fizzy drinks – from healthy broccoli to energy drinks – causing that gas.

Some people experience bloating due to food sensitivities, such as lactose or gluten intolerance, and those with irritable bowel disease and ulcerative colitis are more likely to experience bloating with any food type.

The most unfortunate people are always bloated no matter what they eat, which can be a natural thing or from an undiagnosed gut disorder (it’s worth seeing your GP).

Green powder can help to fix bloating in many of these cases, especially when that bloating is directly caused by vegetables and fruits.

Plant-based diets are significant beneficiaries because green powder is a crucial nutritional top-up for many vegans and vegetarians.

Foods that cause bloating

Fruits and vegetables that release gases in the stomach cause bloating.

Brussel sprouts, broccoli, spinach, cabbage, beans, prunes, and apricots are common whole food culprits, but they aren't the biggest villains.

Grains and rice, mainly processed products like bread and noodles, can give you severe bloating that stretches the loosest top.

If you have a dairy or gluten intolerance, foods and drinks containing them can also cause mild to severe bloating.

Fast foods, especially fries and bread buns are also common causes of bloating, so it's best to avoid them whenever possible.

A quick way to eat healthily is to use vybey Complete Meal Powder, which is made from oats, coconut, brown rice, flaxseed, and pea protein.

Foods that are good for bloating

•         Ginger and turmeric found in vybey Braincare Smart Greens have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce gas and bloating.
•         Peppermint contains menthol, which can help relax the muscles in your digestive tract and reduce gas and bloating.
•         Fennel is a natural diuretic and can help reduce water retention, which can contribute to bloating.
•         Yoghurt with probiotics helps maintain a healthy gut microbiome, which can prevent or reduce bloating.
•         Bananas are high in potassium, which can help balance sodium levels and reduce water retention.

Fixes for bloating

Green powder is the best fix for bloating from vegetables and fruits because it gives you their nutrition without the excessive gas.

You can still get natural vitamins and minerals without feeling uncomfortable. Even better, you can mix green powder into your shakes and porridge, making it more convenient than a plate of veggies or another meal.

Of course, liquid diets are not sustainable 100% of the time - you also need solid foods to benefit from proper digestion and nutrition. Green powder is simply a supplement you can use to boost your nutrition alongside solid foods.

You can safely take green powder one to two times daily, but remember that it isn't a meal substitute on its own.

Other ways to beat bloating:

•         Drink more water to 'water down' the solid foods you eat.
•         Eat smaller portions with more protein content.
•         Cut down on alcohol.
•         Reduce lactose and gluten in your diet. You are probably intolerant if foods containing these give you bloating or gas.
•         Eat foods high in fibre, like oats, flaxseed, and nuts. If you want a shake, vybey Complete Meal Powder contains 9g of fibre per 100g serving.
•         Pass gas when it is convenient to do so (go to the bathroom or somewhere quiet and sit on the toilet if you need to).
•         Consume small quantities of ginger and turmeric to reduce inflammation in your gut (a common cause of bloating after eating).
•         Review your medications to see if bloating is a common side effect. If yes, consult your doctor to find a solution.
