About Bloat Relief
Bloat Relief is a Life Extension product that has been specifically formulated to help fight uncomfortable digestion, bloating, and occasional gas after eating foods that have made you feel digestive discomfort of any sort. Thanks to the carefully selected ingredients, the formula provides potent support to the gastrointestinal system to help alleviate these symptoms while also promoting healthy digestion.
In detail, Bloat Relief addresses all key aspects of digestion that could be responsible for bloating and occasional gas, which include the excessive production of gas in the GI tract and gastrointestinal motility. According to studies, the Prodigest group in the formula has shown significant improvements in gastric motility and a reduction in stomach size after eating (measured via ultrasound), which help healthy digestive function.
How Bloat Relief Works
The compounds in Bloat Relief work together to encourage the body’s food processing activities to make the digestion of foods even more efficient and discomfort-free. Sometimes, the body produces more gas than needed when processing the foods you consume. This can lead to feeling overly full after meals and experiencing digestive discomfort.
The plant-based ingredients in Bloat Relief, namely turmeric, fennel seed oil, ginger extract, and artichoke extract, join their forces to help ease tension in the GI tract and promote healthy digestion. To encourage the digestive journey (remember that meals are called to travel a distance of 30 feet, which is how long your digestive system can be), Bloat Relief encourages healthy digestive motility. This means that it ensures the foods get a soft “kick” when they cannot move efficiently through the queue. As a result, you skip bloating, gas, and other digestive discomforts.
Bloat Relief Ingredients
The formula contains a ProDigest Blend that consists of the following compounds:
Artichoke leaf extract – A plant loaded with nutrients that can help improve digestive health, regulate blood pressure, enhance liver health, ease IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms, and lower glucose levels. Combined with ginger, artichoke leaf extract encourages the healthy flow of bile from the liver, which, in turn, helps the body to push food along the digestive tract.
Ginger root extract – It can ease stomach upset, aid digestion, help combat the common cold and the flu, and reduce nausea. Combined with artichoke leaf extract, it helps move food along the GI tract by increasing gastric emptying. This is achieved by promoting the contraction of specific gastrointestinal muscles that help move food through the GI tract (aka migration motor complex).
It also contains:
Bitter fennel oil (seed) – It is used to treat various digestive problems, including appetite loss, bloating, gas in the intestines, heartburn, and even colic in infants. It also hinders the activity of gas-creating bacteria and helps reduce the production of gas in the digestive tract. Combined with turmeric, it fights bloating and fosters digestive comfort by encouraging healthy and regular GI muscle contractions.
Turmeric – A compound with potent antioxidant or anti-inflammatory qualities that helps encourage gastrointestinal function and health.
Important Note: For maximum improvements in digestive discomforts, the manufacturer suggests taking Bloat Relief along with digestive enzymes. Clinical trials have shown that taking a digestive enzyme product with Bloat Relief can drive significant improvements in bloating and other GI discomforts within 14 days.
Bloat Relief Dosage Instructions
The recommended dose is one softgel two times a day before your meals (the heaviest ones) unless your healthcare provider instructs otherwise. However, do NOT exceed the recommended dosage and always ensure you keep the product away from children’s reach.
Side Effects, Interactions, and Warnings
Although no side effects have been reported so far, always check with your physician before taking the formula, especially if you have stomach ulcers, obstruction of bile passages, gallbladder stones, inflammation of the gallbladder, or diabetes. This is because turmeric may lower blood sugar levels and increase stomach acidity if taken in large doses. Turmeric may also have a blood-thinning effect, so speak with your doctor if you are taking blood thinners.
Although the ingredients in the formula are in optimal doses that do not cause any health issues, check with your doctor anyway before starting taking Bloat Relief.
As with every nutritional supplement, always consult your healthcare practitioner before taking it, especially if you are pregnant, lactating, or undergoing treatment for a medical condition.
