Hi,
Thank you for using health care magic.
Bloating, burping and passing gas are natural and are usually caused by swallowed air or the breakdown of food through digestion.
Bloating means, gas buildup in stomach and intestines. When gas doesn't pass through belching or flatulence, it can build up in the stomach and intestines and lead to bloating.
Bloating and burping may be due to:
1. Eating fatty foods, which can delay stomach emptying and make you feel uncomfortably full.
2. Drinking carbonated beverages or eating gassy foods.
3. Eating too quickly
4. Drinking through a straw.
5. Chewing gum or sucking on candies, resulting in swallowing air.
6. Stress or anxiety
