Bloating Causing Food #5: Wheat
Wheat is used to make many popular foods and is a darling for many millions in America and around the world. However, wheat is also one of the foods that cause bloating; thanks to the gluten in it. Gluten is a combination of proteins that gives wheat its gummy property.
But a significant percentage of the population is sensitive to gluten. As a result, eating food containing gluten such as wheat and wheat products causes reactions in the body which lead to excess gas, bloating and stomach pain. Gluten is also present in other foods like barley and rye. If you are gluten sensitive, you can still enjoy baked goods made from alternatives like buckwheat, quinoa and oats.
