Bloating

Symptoms like bloating and food cravings may detect a problem with our intestines. The general population has to bloat between 16 and 31% of the time. It’s usually a short-term problem that goes away on its own. Sometimes it’s caused by a big meal or a food that makes gas.

But for some people, being bloated is a long-term problem that causes mild to serious complaints and hurts their standard of life. Have you got this sign? Try out my E-course on the gut!

We feel full when we have too much gas in our digestive system. 

Many things can cause bloating and burping, but the most common are what and how we eat or drink. When we eat or drink anything, but there aren’t enough digestive enzymes in our stomach to break it down for further digestion, our meal will repeat on us to provide more enzymes and break it down again. It may also be related to food-related issues.

Bad Breath

Bad smell and gut health may be tied. Halitosis, sometimes called bad breath, is a sign of a bad gut. Due to the unfavorable effects it has on one’s self-esteem and interpersonal relationships, and this has become a severe personal concern. Because this illness makes people feel bad, it is often not treated. 

You might have bad breath if you eat something with a strong, unpleasant smell or haven’t brushed your teeth in a long time. These are all common, mild causes of bad breath. On the other hand, chronic halitosis may be more troublesome since it should be properly evaluated as it may be a sign of essential health issues that impact more than just your mouth.

Too many germs in the small intestine can cause a lot of rotten-smelling gases and burping, which makes your breath smell bad. Most people with bad breath from their stomachs say it smells like rotten eggs. This is because bacteria in the gut break down sulfur into a gas that smells like eggs. But for some people, the smell is worse and more unpleasant.

Constipation

Constipation is a common gut problem. According to studies, up to 25% of the world’s population suffers from this long-lasting and often socially limiting condition. Everyone will experience constipation at a certain point, even though certain classes are more likely to suffer.

It’s crucial to understand that dysbiosis, or an imbalance in the gut microbiota, may also cause constipation. Constipated people often have a very different mix of bacteria in their guts than healthy people who don’t have constipation. They have more bacteria that make methane, which slows down the time it takes for waste to move through the bowels.

A healthy bacteria can reduce the amount of methane made, improve the quality and frequency of stools, and make constipation symptoms like bloating, gut pain, and soreness go away.

Skin Problems

Your skin could also show signs of bad gut health. When the gut isn’t healthy, a stomach that doesn’t work right can greatly affect our whole health, including the appearance of our skin with imperfections, erythema, eczema, and rosacea. The gut microbiome is an accumulation of microbes that reside in the intestines and affect the entire body, particularly the epidermis.

Studies show that when inflammation is in the gut, there is also inflammation in the face. People with a healthful gut microbiome have a healthier lipid balance, which means their skin is better hydrated, moisturized, and protected.

Feeling tired all the time

People who are always tired may have problems with their stomachs. Tiredness can be caused by a stomach problem that makes it hard to sleep or makes it hard to sleep. The preponderance of the serotonin in the body, which manage mood and sleep, is generated in the intestines. So, if you have germs or inflammation in your gut, it may make it hard for you to sleep. And, as we saw with the link between the gut and the brain, the link between rest and gut health goes both ways. Sleep is essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system.

Craving Sweets

Unexpectedly, a big sweet tooth could indicate poor gut health. Microorganisms in the gut make proteins that work like hormones that control hunger. These proteins affect what we want to eat and how we feel.

Bacteria are the same as us! Or, at the very least, they are different because of different microbes like different kinds of food. Some grow best on carbs, while others do best on dietary fiber or certain fats. Yeast, in particular, grows best on sugar. 

So, some people say that the more you give in to certain needs, the more the microbes that cause those needs to grow. This keeps the loop going and gives sugar-loving, pro-inflammatory bacteria a chance to take over, which could cause more health problems.
