Every day we use many objects, but many of these have an effect on our organism that we do not know, or at least which we do not think about. For example, if we suffer from meteorism it goes without saying that carbonated drinks are to be avoided, as they contain carbon dioxide which creates gas inside the stomach.
However, not only carbonated drinks, but also food for example. We all know that beans cause flatulence. These legumes are excellent for our body because they contain a lot of nutrients. And we must not combine them with foods such as cabbage, turnips and others because they would promote intestinal gas even more.
The list of foods or drinks that create the famous bowel movements are many, but in addition to these there are also tools that cause them. Maybe we don’t realize it because they are objects that are used in everyday life and therefore we don’t think too much about the actions they can have on our body.
If we suffer from meteorism we should absolutely avoid using this tool when we drink
When we drink soft drinks, whatever they are, they are often served with a straw. But by drinking water or something else, with this tool we will ingest further air that will go straight into the stomach. Which, for example, also happens when we eat too quickly, or when we chew gum. And therefore in some cases this air could cause meteorism. For this it would be better to avoid drinking with a straw.
Without a straw it is also more sustainable
In addition, however, to a speech of air in the stomach, we can also add a sustainable speech. In fact, to drink this tool is not absolutely necessary, which most of the time is made of plastic. Other times, the straws are made from recycled plastic, or bamboo. But the truth is, we could easily drink without a straw. And therefore avoid meteorisms and also be sustainable towards the planet. Also because many times when we drink a cocktail, in a bar or in a club, there are two straws that are inserted into the glass.
This is actually a strategic choice, because if we drink from two straws, the cocktail we are drinking will run out sooner. And in doing so we will be more willing to take a second one, because the first one ended too soon.
So we just have to avoid using straws to say goodbye to meteorisms, be more sustainable and not finish the cocktail immediately. And so if we suffer from meteorism we should absolutely avoid using this object that we often find in bars but very often we also have at home.
