> Seven causes of bloated gut from poor digestion to gut imbalance. Learn what's behind your bloating and how MOJO DETOX helps clear it. £9.97 Starter Pack.

A bloated gut ruins your day. Your clothes don't fit, you feel sluggish, and no amount of water seems to help. Most people blame food, but the real culprits are deeper: weak digestion, backed-up waste, imbalanced gut bacteria, and liver sluggishness all team up to keep you feeling heavy. Here are seven causes of bloating, what each one does, and how to clear it.

## How it works

1. **Probiotics & Prebiotics for Gut Health** — Balance gut bacteria and improve digestion with beneficial probiotics and nourishing prebiotics.
2. **Natural Digestive Support** — NAC and psyllium husk support detox, promoting toxin elimination and enhanced digestion.
3. **Fiber for Regularity** — Soluble fiber from psyllium husk helps regulate bowel movements and supports healthy digestion.
4. **Gentle Digestive Support** — The formula gently supports colon cleansing, promoting regularity without harsh side effects.

## 1. Poor digestion leaves food sitting too long

**Who it's for:** Anyone whose bloating comes after eating and gets worse throughout the day.

When your digestive system isn't moving food through efficiently, it sits and ferments. That fermentation creates gas, bloating, and discomfort. Weak bile flow makes this worse, and the longer food stays, the more your gut has to work.

**Why it matters:** Psyllium Husk and multi-strain probiotics support digestive flow and nutrient absorption.

**Tip:** Eat slower and chew thoroughly; your body works better when you give it time to digest.

## 2. Backed-up waste stretches your colon

**Who it's for:** People who feel full even after a bowel movement, or go less than once daily.

Poor digestion and backed-up waste can leave you feeling uncomfortably full. That stretched feeling is bloating, and it gets worse the longer waste sits in your system. Your gut needs support.

**Why it matters:** The formula supports bowel movement regularity and stool softening.

**Tip:** Aim for at least one easy bowel movement daily; that's the baseline for a comfortable gut.

## 3. Gut bacteria imbalance ferments everything

**Who it's for:** Anyone with inconsistent digestion, irregular stools, or bloating after meals.

Your gut bacteria eat what you eat. When the balance tips toward gas-producing bacteria, every meal becomes a fermentation event. You bloat because the wrong bacteria are winning the population race and pumping out gas as they feed.

**Why it matters:** 8 billion multi-strain probiotics support a healthy gut microbiome and balanced digestion.

**Tip:** Consistency matters; probiotics need 2–3 weeks to establish and rebalance your microbiome.

## 4. Fibre deficiency starves your good bacteria

**Who it's for:** Anyone eating processed food, not enough vegetables, or irregular meals.

Good bacteria need food, and that food is soluble fibre. Without enough of it, the beneficial strains can't thrive. They get outcompeted by gas-producing bacteria, and your bloating gets worse even if you eat healthily otherwise.

**Why it matters:** Prebiotic fibres including Inulin and Konjac feed beneficial bacteria and support regularity.

**Tip:** Add fibre gradually; a sudden jump causes temporary extra bloating as your gut adjusts.

## 5. Liver sluggishness backs up into your gut

**Who it's for:** People who drink regularly, have heavy diets, or feel sluggish in the morning.

Your liver processes everything you eat and drink, then sends bile to your gut to help digest fats. When your liver is overloaded, bile flow slows, digestion stalls, and bloating follows. Alcohol, processed food, and stress all slow your liver down.

**Why it matters:** N-Acetylcysteine and Alpha-Lipoic Acid support liver function and antioxidant defences.

**Tip:** Take DETOX in the morning; that's when your liver naturally ramps up its detox work.

## 6. Some foods can trigger an uncomfortable bloated response.

**Who it's for:** People who bloat after certain meals, especially bread, dairy, or alcohol.

Some foods can cause your digestive system to react, leading to water retention and swelling. Your gut isn't just full; it's also responding to what you've eaten. The bloating can last hours because your body is processing the food.

**Why it matters:** Turmeric and antioxidants support digestive comfort and overall balance.

**Tip:** Keep a simple food diary for three days to spot which meals trigger your worst bloating.

## 7. Water retention makes your midsection heavy

**Who it's for:** Anyone who feels heavy and puffy but isn't overweight, especially before or after a heavy meal.

Bloating isn't always gas or backed-up stool. Sometimes it's water your body is holding because your gut is inflamed, your electrolytes are off, or your liver isn't processing efficiently. The result is the same: you feel heavy and uncomfortable.

**Why it matters:** The blend of digestive support and liver support helps reduce excess water retention and bloating.

**Tip:** Stay well hydrated and get movement; activity after eating helps fluid move through your system.
