Hello,

Welcome to Health Care Magic.

Thanks for writing.

I am Dr.Muhammad Ahmad. I have read your question completely, i understand your concern and will try to help you in best way possible.

This is common.when one has not eaten anything, bacteria in the gut keep decaying the food left in the gut and this process produces gas in the gut , here are a few sugestions which will help you.

1) Drink much fluid.
2) Avoid fizzy drinks, coffee caffeine tea... junk food ...smoking ..alcohol(what ever applies)
3) Eat more vegetables.
4) try taking raw fruits and vegetables.
5) Take small multiple meals instead of two large meals.
6) Stay physcially active.
7) Use high fibre food ..like whole wheat products.
8)Less amount of dairy products.

these suggestions will help you much. If they dont then i would suggest you to see your doctor to get advanced meds prescribed after detailed checkup.


I hope this answered your question, a
