Juice That Helps You De-Bloat

Bloating is often seen as a cosmetic issue, since it makes your abdomen appear larger 
than it is. However, bloating can also be extremely uncomfortable, cause your clothes to 
be tighter, and even cause cramping. If you are struggling with bloating, the following 
juice options can help tremendously.


Choosing the Right Ingredients

The first thing you need to do is compile some ingredients that not only help with 
bloating issues, but can also be juiced or added to your juice. While this is not a 
comprehensive list, it can help get you started:

Ginger
Peppermint
Cucumber
Celery
Carrots
Beets
Lemon
Turmeric
Pears

You want to be careful for bloat-inducing vegetables and fruits like apples, broccoli, 
kale, and spinach. Save these for another day when you aren’t dealing with bloating.


Why are You Bloating?

It is also a good idea to consider why you might be dealing with excessive bloat. Having 
bloating afer a big meal is completely normal, but when it happens consistently whether 
you have eaten or not, that si when you know there might be something else going on. 

Here are some common reasons for bloating:

Eating gassy foods like broccoli, cauliflower, or spinach
Swallowing too much air, such as from carbonation
Medical conditions like IBS, crohn’s and Celiac disease
Eating fatty foods
Eating foods with a lot of salt and sodium
Hormonal changes, menstrual period
Problems digesting fiber

The reason you want to know why you might be bloating is because it can help you 
figure out what ingredients to add to your de-bloating juice. For example, if fiber is a 
problem with your digestive system, you obviously want to avoid pears, apples, and 
high-fiber veggies.


Tips for Making De-Bloating Juice

When it comes to making your juice, eliminate any produce that might irritate the gas or 
bloating in your digestive system, and put together ingredients you enjoy, have on hand, 
and that can be juiced. Here are some ideas:

Cucumber, Lemon, and Celery Juice – This is an extremely hydrating juice that won’t 
taste sweet and tastes much like flavored water. These are all ingredients that will 
produce a lot of juice, so you can make more than one glass with just a few cucumbers, 
lemons, and celery stalks.

Add Peppermint to Your Juice – Peppermint is an amazing option when it comes to 
bloating or any other digestive distress. You can either make a juice of your choice with 
some peppermint leaves added, or make juice or a smoothie with cooled peppermint 
tea.

Beets, Carrots, and Ginger – This de-bloating recipe is from Joe Cross, which includes 
1 beet, 3 carrots, and a 2-inch piece of ginger.
