For most people, bloating occurs following a heavy meal, prior to and during menstruation or as a result of excess gas in the gut. But for some, it can be a symptom of an underlying health condition.
Bloating makes your stomach feel full and uncomfortable, but there are numerous things that can be done to ease discomfort, the Liverpool Echo reports.
Health science company ZOE, which is behind the largest Covid study in the world, believes that adding fermented foods or probiotic supplements to your diet, decreasing your salt consumption and being aware of which foods are difficult to digest could all help to prevent bloating. The researchers viewed 43 different studies, which included people with IBS who had tried probiotic supplements.
