5 of the best bloat-busting supplements

J L Bragg, Activated Charcoal Tablets

A surprising use for charcoal is its brilliant ability ease gas and bloating. If you take it before a meal it will prevent intestinal gas, which will in turn prevent bloating. It works by trapping toxins and binding gas-producing compounds in foods to stop them causing discomfort. And it also helps to cleanse the digestive tract and rid it of toxins that may be causing reactions in your gut. Plus, it can help to alleviate symptoms of indigestion, bloating, IBS and leaky gut syndrome. Take two to three tablets after each meal for best results.
