Bloated And Gassy After Almost Every Meal, What Can I Change?

Bloating after meals is very common and is often caused by swallowing air while eating quickly, fizzy drinks, and foods that produce gas such as beans, onions, wheat and dairy. Some people do not digest lactose (the sugar in milk) well, so milk tea several times a day could be part of the problem. Irritable bowel syndrome and constipation can also cause daily bloating.

Eat slowly, have smaller meals, and try cutting out milk for two weeks to see if you feel better, then do the same with bread. A short walk after dinner helps gas move along. See a gastroenterologist if the bloating does not improve, or sooner if you have weight loss, vomiting, blood in your stool, trouble swallowing or a change in bowel habits that lasts more than a few weeks.
