In watching a recent Dr. Oz episode I learned that when you hear gurgling your stomach area that it is not actually your stomach, but your small intestines. What will relieve this gas is eating Greek strained yogurt.
He served the Greek yogurt with honey, but I enjoy it as a sour cream substitute. It tastes more like non-fat sour cream to me. I enjoy it as a dip with no salt tortilla chips. This is great for a low sodium diet, too. The Greek Yogurt I purchase at Trader Joe’s has no sodium or cholesterol.
He mentioned that eating too fast and drinking from a straw may also cause gurgling sounds because you are swallowing air.
Yogurt is a great probiotic which is very healthy for you. But let us skip all those sugary yogurts, please!
I hope you find this helpful!
