Bloating is a common issue faced by most of us. Depending on several factors, bloating can make us uncomfortable, and filled with the sensation of being overfed. Often bloating happens due to the trapped gas inside the body. With yoga asanas this trapped gas can be released and the body can be relieved. However, in most cases, we tend to reach out for carbonated drinks to release the trapped gas and manage bloating. Bloating can happen due to several factors - "Consuming heavy meals or high fibrous foods, water retention due to stress, lack of sleep, menstrual cycle, etc. are all factors that cause bloating. It is basically trapped gas in the stomach and intestines,” Anshuka Parwani noted down a few possible reasons of bloating.
