What Causes Severe Abdominal Bloating While Having Food?

I have severe abdominal bloating. It is worse when I eat, but it is a feeling of fullness and bloating all the time. It feels like my whole abdominal region is full of air and it makes my stomach bigger and very hard. Do you know what this could be and what I can do for it.?

I appreciate your problems.

the most important cause of bloating after taking food is ingestion of air along with the food.

approximately 70 to 80% of intestinal gas comes from ingestion of air along with food and rest are produced by bacteria in your gut.

i manage such patiets conservatively with following advice

1. close the lips while chewing of food
2. dont talk while eating food
3. reduce the more gas forming food

i hope this will helps you.
