Indigestion Abdominal Bloating

Indigestion Abdominal Bloating

Here we will explain the most common cause. Our stomach acts as a storage, digestion and filter for the food we take in. When it is full, its volume is 2 liters. For effective digestion, food must be cut into pieces smaller than one millimeter. This is necessary for food to pass from the stomach to the intestine. And the stomach grinds and digests food over and over again to break it down into such small pieces. Moreover, fat, sugar and dense liquids delay intestinal passage. Meanwhile, swallowed air is another cause of bloating. In a normal diet, 2 hours after eating, the stomach sends all its contents to the intestine. If we chew food quickly and inadequately, this time is prolonged. This results in bloating. For example, it is normal to feel bloated when drinking sherbet with a fatty kebab eaten quickly.

Unnecessary use of stomach medications for a long time disrupts the digestive system of the stomach and the food stays in the stomach for a longer period of time, causing bloating. Therefore, continuous use of these drugs outside the doctor’s advice is another cause of indigestion. Remember that every drug used has a side effect. A completely innocent drug has not yet been produced.
