EatThis.com

Activated charcoal is a natural supplement used to reduce intestinal discomfort by absorbing toxins and moving them out of the body. A study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology found that activated charcoal may be useful for treating gastrointestinal bloating and gas. Activated charcoal supplements are available for purchase at health stores in pill form. Be sure to drink lots of water while supplementing with activated charcoal as it is a potent detoxifying agent.

1. Probiotics

Probiotics are the “good” bacteria found in the gut. They have been used to boost the immune system, ease digestive discomfort, reduce intestinal gas and bloating, and prevent chronic disease. It should be noted that supplementing with too many probiotics may cause stomach discomfort. Most people who do not suffer from a digestive disease do not need to take more than twenty billion colony forming units each day. Eating foods with naturally occurring probiotics may also help. Examples include sauerkraut, Keifer, miso, yogurt, and tempeh.
