Why Do You Keep Getting Bloating? And How to Prevent It?

Have you ever felt like your stomach is suddenly bigger after a meal?

Or feel uncomfortable because of trapped gas, even when you have not eaten much?

Bloating is a common digestive complaint that many people experience, but the reasons behind it can be different for everyone. Identifying your personal triggers is the first step towards managing bloating effectively.

Why do you keep getting bloating? It could be due to the following reasons:

Causes of stomach bloating 

1. Eating habits 

• Eating too quickly: Swallowing air or not chewing properly 
• Eating large portions: Eating too much stretches the stomach, causing bloating 
• Drinking carbonated drinks: They contain dissolved carbon dioxide 

 
2. Digestive conditions 

• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS): Bloating is one of the common symptoms suffered by IBS patients 
• Constipation: Gas trapped in the colon due to hard stools blocking the way 
• Food intolerance: Unable to tolerate gluten and lactose 
• Poor digestion: Lack of digestive enzymes to break down foods properly 

3. Lifestyle factors 

• Stress: Stress can cause bloating via the brain-gut axis 
• Lack of physical activity: Less physical activity slows down digestion and bowel movement 
• Poor sleep habits: Poor sleep can also disrupt digestion and cause bloating 

Bloating can happen when excess gas builds up in the digestive tract, but it may also be related to digestion, bowel movement patterns, food choices, or gut sensitivity. Some common digestive-related symptoms that present together with stomach bloating are:
