What are causes of bloating and acidity after meals?

Temperature changes may slow down digestion, so it’s advised to avoid contradictory temperature combinations

If you are frequently experiencing bloating and acidity after consuming meals, then it may be due to the disruption in the digestive system.

Maintaining your lifestyle and minor tweaks in your eating patterns can enhance your gut health.

Causes of bloating and acidity after meals

Here are few of the causes of frequent bloating and acidity after meals:

Inappropriate food combinations

Mixing fermented foods with heavy starches affects the digestive system and leads to bloating.

It’s recommended to Avoid common combinations such as Dal-Chawal + Curd, Hot chai with paratha, and Dosa + Coffee.

Timing

Eat dinner before 8pm, and avoid morning coffee on an empty stomach, as it leads to acidity and adversely affects your digestive system.

Temperature changes

Temperature changes may slow down digestion, so it’s advised to avoid contradictory temperature combinations such as ice water with biryani, cold lassi with hot parathas, and more.

Avoid stressed eating

You should avoid rushing through short lunch breaks, as forcing your body to manage digestion and stress at the same time is ineffective.
