Flat stomach: fight against constipation and bloating
First of all, you have to fight against constipation. Poor transit can play an important role in this swollen stomach aspect. To promote the work of the intestine, it is necessary to favor dietary fibers. The recommended daily amount is 45 to 50 grams of fiber.
There are two types :
Soluble fibers: they act on the control of blood sugar and cholesterol. They also reduce digestive discomfort, prevent diarrhea and promote the balance of the intestinal flora. They are found in apples, pears, oranges, strawberries as well as asparagus, beans, Brussels sprouts and carrots.
Insoluble fibers: having a high swelling power, insoluble fibers accelerate transit and promote satiety. These are the most effective against constipation. So when you want to find a flat stomach, you must be careful to have on your plate this type of anti-constipation food such as bran, wheat cereals, peas, spinach, turnips, green beans, certain legumes or seeds and oilseeds.
If constipation and bloating persist over time despite a balanced diet rich in fiber, you should talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
