A list of de-bloaters to help your stomach shrink!

Peppermint Tea

Peppermint tea is known to calm down the entire digestive system; drinking it after your indulging session can also eliminate gases.

Instant Oatmeal

It is suggested that eating plain instant oatmeal instead of a pastry in the morning will keep your bowels regular since oatmeal is a good source of soluble fiber.

Parsley

Parsley is known as a natural diuretic that helps get rid of excess fluid out of the body as well as providing you with bone building vitamin K and immune boosting vitamin C.

Fennel

Fennel is known to be a digestive stimulant and it boosts bile production in order to help break down foods; sipping it post meal will give you a good de-bloating fix.

Banana

Bananas are known for their high potassium levels, and these high levels of potassium help your body get rid of belly-bloating sodium and excess water retention. The morning after your binge, have a banana with peanut butter, or a banana smoothie.

Yogurt

If the bacterial balance in your gut is off, it causes gas and bloating. Hello probiotics!! The bacteria found in yogurt can rebalance the gut and improve your digestive health; try to avoid the sugary ones.

Water

When there is not enough fluid in the body, sodium will cause retention to all the fluid you have; that’s why it’s always recommended to drink more water.

Ginger

Ginger is an anti-spasmodic that aids digestion and relaxes the digestive tract muscles.

Breakfast

Having breakfast will wake up your digestive tract and help move food. Having something light like an omelet with veggies would do the trick.

Coconut Water

Potassium-rich coconut water can help neutralize all that salt you take in when you overeat. To speed the de-bloating process, have some coconut water.
