6 best vitamins and supplements for women who bloat
The morning vitamins and supplements I’m bringing with me in 2023! I’ve already shared this in my newsletter (subscribe if you want to join the exclusive fun!) but I just know this belongs on my page for others to see!
If you’re someone who struggles with constant bloating – 1.) you’re not alone and 2.) hopefully some of these vitamins will be able to help you, like they helped me! I’ve been taking these morning vitamins consistently for over a year now but the last two that I mention …. THOSE TWO PRODUCTS CHANGED THE GAME when it came to bloating.
-> I will also disclose that (because of PCOS + Endometriosis symptoms) I have been following a gluten free and dairy limited diet for a few months now and that has also played a huge part in controlling my bloating. (I haven’t completely cut out either because… truth is, its freaking hard and also not as enjoyable if I’m being honest!) <-

vitamins & supplements
Vitamin B12 is essential! B12 can be found in fish, shellfish, meat, eggs, and dairy – which all can be good sources if you’re getting the right amount!
I’ve referred to my B12 gummies as my “happy pills” as a doctor once told me and it’s because b12 may help boost mood and reduce symptoms of depression (it’s not a magic gummy)
*I take this at least two hours after I take my b-12(lunch time!). Not exactly sure why, but research shows the two paired together reduces the b-12 absorption and we don’t want that!*
Vitamin C has many health benefits and boosting antioxidant levels, improving iron absorption, lowering blood pressure, boosting immunity, and reducing dementia and heart disease are only a few!
A few other ways to get vitamin C without supplementing are citrus fruits, bell peppers, strawberries, white potatoes, cruciferous veggies, and tomatoes!
Vitamin D is essential for bone/muscle strength and immune function! Vitamin D may also even help prevent depression, heart disorders, and inflammatory disease!
Getting vitamin D from foods and supplements is great, but my favorite is that sunshine 😛
Omega-3 fats may help prevent heart disease and strokes, eczema, may help control lupus, and may also play a protective role in cancer!
To be honest, I started taking Omega-3 a few years ago here and there, and have started taking it every single day for the last year because I found out it helped with PCOS and endometriosis symptoms!
Womens probiotic’s three main goals are to increase your good bacteria count, decrease your bad bacteria count, and reduced inflammation. REDUCE INFLAMMATION – aka bloating!!!! It takes these probiotics 2-3 weeks for you to start feeling significant benefits! It’s also great for improving your gut!
The short response to L-glutamine, is it helps tighten the gut lining to Improve leaky gut! I went down a leaky gut rabbit hole and found L-glutamine to be a key supplement! Also a PCOS friendly supplement!
I encourage you to do more research because there are so many resources out there!
I believe these are the best vitamins and supplements for women who bloat, but the last two I mentioned are really what’s going to do it for ya. The four before are IMO unrelated to bloating, but the probiotic and l-glutamine powder are there to improve your gut health and that will slowly help your bloating! I will say, I have/had SEVERE bloat, like sooo bad that I wouldn’t even want to move let alone put clothes on and go out in public. In addition to the probiotic and l-glutamine I’ve restricted my gluten and dairy intake. And the second I incorporate it back into my diet I INSTANTLY regret it. SOOOO as much as that really sucks, it may be the best thing to do! And at least worth a try <3
