  • Top Tips for New Vegans - Dealing With Bloating & Gas
    We all know the rhyme: "Beans, beans their good for your heart, the more you eat the more you fart..."Switching your diet from one based around meat and/or dairy through to one based on whole grains and vegetables is definitely the right thing to do for your health. However, for some people, it can feel very uncomfortable to start with, as this new healthy diet causes their guts to bloat and to create an overproduction of those unwelcome farts. Long-term vegans are not big bloated, gas-producing machines, so it can be demotivating to new wanna-be vegans to find that this new 'healthy' way of eating is making them feel all gassed-up.So, what can be done? The answer is that there are lots of things that individuals can do to help reduce gas and bloating over the first few weeks of following a vegan diet. In this podcast Caroline Harrison, M.Ed., BSc. Psych., and Cert. in Plant-Based Nutrition discusses the practical steps anyone can take to help to ease their transition process.If you want to easily transition to a vegan diet, help is at hand.
