Gut Bloating: Why You Still Feel Bloated (Even If You Eat "Clean")
Digestive Wellness Report • Updated June 19, 2025

Why You’re Still Bloated (Even When You Eat Healthy)

Gut bloating affects over 30% of American adults. And for many, it’s not about what you eat — but how your body reacts to what you eat.

If you searched for gut bloating, chances are you’ve tried it all:

  • Cutting dairy or gluten
  • Taking probiotics
  • Eating more fiber

Yet that heavy, puffy feeling keeps coming back — often without warning. Why?

The Real Reason Behind Bloating

Most bloating isn’t caused by food itself — it’s caused by gut imbalance. When your gut microbiome is out of sync, it can lead to excess gas, poor digestion, and inflammation.

📊 Fast Facts on Bloating in the U.S.

  • 70% of Americans report experiencing bloating at least once a week
  • Women are 2x more likely to report chronic bloating than men
  • Overuse of antibiotics and processed foods are key disruptors of gut flora
  • Stress and poor sleep are major bloating triggers

The good news? You can reset your gut and relieve bloating by addressing the real root cause — not just masking symptoms.

The Hidden Culprit: Fermentation Overload

When your digestive tract struggles to break down food, it starts fermenting inside your gut. This creates gas, pressure, and discomfort — especially after meals.

Experts now point to something called “fermentative dysbiosis” — an overgrowth of bad bacteria that thrive on carbs and sugars — as a leading driver of bloating and IBS-like symptoms.
