"This feeling is not only physically uncomfortable but also may affect our mood and self-esteem," said Dr Oz.
"We all will experience bloating from time to time. Often caused by natural processes during digestion, bloating is typically triggered by the accumulation of fluid or production of gas in the body.
"The occasional puff up can be reduced through some wise food choices and lifestyle changes.
"If youre already bloated, cucumbers can make a great tummy-flattening snack. The high water and low fibre content of these tasty vegetables can cause increased urination, which in turn, makes you feel slimmer."
