Eating too hastily, stress and nervousness can lead to unpleasant flatulence.

Creativity, a good mood and well-being come from the gut - but only if the gut is also doing well. Because it is very sensitive. No wonder, because a huge network of nerve cells controls the complex digestive processes. This is why the gut is also known as the abdominal brain.

Everyone has air in their stomach

Almost everyone has air in their stomach from time to time. It usually goes away on its own. Flatulence is often caused by poor diet, fast food or stress. In particular, gases are produced when fiber, lots of carbohydrates or a lot of protein are broken down by the intestinal bacteria. The majority of these gases enter the bloodstream and are exhaled through the lungs. The rest escapes to the outside via the intestines. And it doesn't smell particularly good.

Stress and nervousness as triggers

Stress and nervousness can also be a cause. Many people eat too quickly and swallow a lot of air in the process. This can then make itself felt as a feeling of fullness in the stomach. The stomach rumbles because the trapped air wants to get out.

When the intestines cramp, the air can become trapped in the curves on the right and left of the stomach. The consequences: Bloating. Then your pants become too tight, and abdominal pain and heavy rumbling become a problem. But what can help with bloating?

Homeopathic help for flatulence

Homeopathic remedies (e.g. Bellilin, pharmacy) can provide gentle help for flatulence and bloating. These remedies are suitable for all ages - even babies - and help to balance the intestines.
