Probiotic Foods
As for probiotic foods, "y'all know one of my favorites is kombucha. Another example here is sauerkraut. So good for your gut," she says. Other examples are yogurt, kefir, kimchi, fermented veggies, and miso.
The Combo of the Three Is Great for Your Gut
She claims that the combo of the drink plus prebiotic and probiotic food equals gut health. "Your gut is going to thank you," she says. "When I'm in a rut, and I'm like, I'm feeling extra bloated, and I'm going somewhere, and I want these jeans to fit a certain way, I'm going to pull this concoction out and also make sure my diet is balanced."
Boating Changes with Your Cycle
She also adds that "on different phases of your cycle, you can absolutely be a little bit more bloated than others, so always keep that in mind," but even so, this combo helps.

An MD Explains Bloating
Kenneth Brown, MD, a Texas-based gastroenterologist, Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Atrantil, and the host of the Gut Check Project podcast explains that during the menstrual cycle, hormonal fluctuations, primarily estrogen and progesterone, can have a significant impact on gastrointestinal function for women. "These changes can lead to symptoms such as bloating, abdominal discomfort, and changes in bowel habits," he says.
Here Is What Helps with Bloating
What else helps with bloating? According to Dr. Brown, a fiber-rich diet, hydration, exercise, mindful eating, limiting trigger foods, and herbal teas. And yes, lemon water can help. "Warm lemon water may help alleviate bloating for some individuals by promoting hydration, stimulating digestive enzymes, increasing bile flow, reducing inflammation, and supporting regular bowel movements," he says. "However, its effectiveness can vary depending on the underlying cause of bloating and individual factors such as digestive health and diet. It's important to note that warm lemon water may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with GERD or acid-related digestive issues."
