Symptoms, conditions and causes
What’s causing belching?
Belching is often related to gallbladder issues, particularly if you're taking bile salts. However, another important factor could be the enzyme TUDCA, a type of bile salt that helps maintain bile flow. If you're already taking bile salts with meals and still experiencing belching, consider these steps:
1. Enzymes: Insufficient digestive enzymes can strain the pancreas, especially in those with insulin resistance. Eating raw foods may improve symptoms, indicating a need for more enzymes.
2. Stomach Acid: Low stomach acid can cause belching. Supplementing with betaine hydrochloride may help increase stomach acid levels.
3. Probiotics: Fermentation issues in the digestive system might also be a cause. Increasing probiotics can help balance gut flora and reduce belching.
Addressing these areas can help identify and manage the underlying causes of belching.
