Some Important To Get Rid Of Burping

Burps can be quite difficult to handle for you when they become excess. So here are few easy ways that can treat excessive burping.

1.Breathing Exercise

Deep breathing or to be more precise a ‘well-paced respiration’ will help you in easing the burping discomfort or belching. Taking slow deep breathes will get more oxygen to your body, will increase the blood flow with more oxygen in to the digestion process and will let them function well leading to proper digestion and prevents gas from forming. The gas usually leads to lots of burping so this simple trick can help.

To perform Deep Breathing

  • Sit in a very comfortable relaxed position or you can even lie down flat
  • You can place your hand on your abdomen as you can really feel the breathing.
  • Inhale deeply but slowly. Don’t hurry and inhale fast.
  • Feel your abdomen and see how it responds when you inhale more air/oxygen.
  • Take it slowly and feel the air getting in your lungs.
  • Hold your breath for three – five seconds. You don’t have to hold it if you find it difficult.
  • Exhale slowly. Can also exhale slowly through your mouth
  • Continue this deep breath for a good five times. You can also do it for five – ten minutes time.
  • Do this exercise in the morning, or after your exercise/workout and in the evening.
  • Don’t do deep breath as soon as you had your food. Don’t do this with full stomach.

Take Your Food In Peace – Definitely No Hurry!

Eat your food slowly and chew them well. Rushing through your meals or gulping the foods will cause more trouble in the digestion leading to burps. Side by side drinking (water or any beverage) while taking your food is a totally unhealthy habit which will cause excess burping and if not it leads to improper digestion for sure.

Chatting while eating will make you swallow lot of air which in turn can lead to burping. Don’t talk while you eat.
