Are there some foods that reduce belly bloating?

Yes, although I would like to remind you that they do not have the same effect on everyone.
In particular, whenever we learn about foods that deflate the stomach, we must ask ourselves the following very important question: how do I digest them?

If we do not normally digest these foods , it is useless to consume them in an attempt to limit swelling and intestinal fermentation. In fact, the two things go hand in hand with slow digestion, made difficult for example by the fact that we tolerate certain fibers, the seeds of some fruits or the toughest parts of others, little or badly.
Below, six foods that deflate the belly, and the tips to eat them at their best to avoid opposite problems!

SIX FOODS THAT DEFLATE YOUR BELLY

1. Pineapple. Pineapple promotes the digestion of proteins thanks to bromelain, so it is perfect as a fruit at the end of a meal if we have eaten meat or fish and vegetables.
   The same substance that aids in the digestion of proteins, bromelain, is a natural antibacterial that reduces intestinal bloating.
   But the central part of the stem is really difficult to digest, because it is woody. You can deprive the slices, or rather think of blending the stems separately, season them with cinnamon and lemon and make a mousse.
2. Papaya: together with pineapple, we are talking about another exotic fruit.
   Papaya is a portentous fruit, rich in vitamin C and therefore very antioxidant, moreover it is easily digestible.
   There is a fermented papaya-based supplement that can help fight bloating and digestive problems. But even the normal fruit has its properties: it is anti-styptic and avoids intestinal irritation. Here no contraindications. Only, since it is sugary when ripe, it is better to eat it in snacks and not after a carbohydrate meal.
3. Fennel: fennel is very useful to counteract the problems of a swollen stomach, but the ideal as for carrots, celery and cucumbers, would be to consume it raw. True, it has those “threads” that can be annoying, but if consumed between meals it is an excellent anti-hunger and moreover it is draining and diuretic.
4. Artichokes: artichokes stimulate natural peristalsis, have a low glycemic index and purifying properties for the liver. But alas, the artichoke is not well digested by everyone. How to do? Consume only the most tender part of the artichokes, removing the central beard, and never eat them after having cooked them days before. For those who just can’t digest them, try cooking the leaves in water for five / ten minutes, then drinking the water with a little honey or as it is.
   Same exact result.
5. Green tea: green light. Green tea is draining, stimulates metabolism and aids in fat metabolism.
6. Red fruits : red fruits are low in carbohydrates, rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, flavonoids and anthocyanins.
   They are generally well tolerated when eaten ripe, but for those with digestive problems, blueberry or strawberry or raspberry seeds can actually be annoying.
   Prefer pure blueberry juice to drain and deflate.
