Ep. 67: Bloated? What the Timing of Your Bloating is Trying to Tell You About Your Gut
Description
Ever feel like your bloating has no rhyme or reason?
One day you're fine... the next you wake up feeling like a human balloon — before you’ve even had breakfast.
In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the most overlooked clues when it comes to gut symptoms: WHEN your bloating happens.
Because the timing of your bloat?
It’s like your gut’s secret language — telling you exactly where things might be going wrong.
We’ll cover:
→ What it means if you wake up bloated
→ Why you’re bloated after meals (especially protein-heavy ones)
→ The classic “6 months pregnant by bedtime” bloat
→ And yes — even why drinking water might make you bloated
PLUS — I’ll walk you through what to do about each pattern, when testing (like HTMA or GI Map) is actually helpful, and the simple foundational steps you have to take before jumping to lab work.
Bloating should not be your normal — and this episode will help you start uncovering why it’s happening in the first place.
