Bloat

Snippet

Causes: An over abundance of sugar in the lower GI tract triggering a bacterial overload.

Bacterial overload causes the gas.

Most common causes are feeding fresh green sudden changes in diet .

Bloat can also be triggered by stress which will slow down the digestive tract , and not push food through the cecum fast enough to expel the gasses allowing longer fermentation through bacterial buildup.

GI stasis will also cause bloat becuse the guts are not moving and again bacterial overload and gass builds up.

Can also be caused by obstruction. Gut not moving gas builds up.
