Objective: Bloating is a biological process resulting from gas accumulation in the stomach and intestines, leading to abdominal pain and discomfort. Bloating and its associated abdominal pains are common issues affecting both children and adults, causing significant distress. This review aims to identify and report on natural antioxidants effective in treating bloating.
Methods: For this review, literature searches were conducted using keywords such as "herbal remedies," "bloating," and "traditional medicine." Databases such as Google Scholar, SID, MagIran, PubMed, and Scopus were utilized for the search. Ethnobotanical articles relevant to the topic were reviewed.
Results: Herbal remedies including ginger, peppermint, turmeric, cumin, caraway, wormwood, dandelion, burdock, hibiscus, lemon balm, chamomile, and fennel have been shown to effectively reduce abdominal bloating and improve digestive health.
Conclusion: The current study demonstrates that Iranian herbal remedies with potent antioxidant properties can provide effective solutions for reducing abdominal bloating and enhancing digestive health. These herbs, through their active compounds, not only aid in alleviating gas accumulation in the stomach and intestines but also offer anti-inflammatory and soothing effects that help alleviate bloating-related abdominal pain. These findings underscore the importance of utilizing natural and traditional treatments for managing digestive issues and improving individuals' quality of life. Combining these herbs, considering their unique properties, appears to be a comprehensive and effective therapeutic strategy for reducing bloating and promoting gastrointestinal health.
