How can I relieve severe bloating?!
Question: How can I relieve severe bloating?
Last night, my family had a food night and I pigged out. Shortly after, I felt really bloated and sick. I took some malox extra strength but it only helped a bit. I didn't eat anything today until dinner and now I feel like I am going to explode. It is actually painful. I am not constipated. How do I get rid of this?
Answers:
Did you eat a lot of bread? You might actually be having an allergic reaction to some thing you ate, and a surprising number of people are allergic to wheat and don't even realise it.
Drink a pot of mint tea, or ginger, honey and lemon tea. The warm liquid will help you relax and the excess food you ate will start to leave you.
And for goodness sake, control yourself in future. Now you know that pigging has unpleasant aftereffects, don't do it in future.
