Bloating after meals is a common occurrence for many people

Too much bloating after meals? Fear not, because nutritionist Palak Nagpal has come up with a simple concoction recipe to treat that stubborn swelling. Bloating after eating is a typical occurrence that can be spurred on by overeating, meals that produce gas, swallowing air, and digestive issues. It is often characterised by discomfort and fullness in the abdomen, perhaps accompanied by swelling. Herbal teas, water, and physical activity can help get rid of bloating. Nutritionist Palak Nagpal took to Instagram to share a jeera (cumin) + saunf (fennel seeds) water concoction recipe that helps to reduce bloating, aids digestion, and soothes the gut, especially after heavy meals like rajma, chana or dals.

Palak said that one should try this suggested treatment for a week if one often feels bloated. This will help fix bloating caused by tal chana rajma, a type of bean that might cause bloating for some individuals, she said.

She added the recipe in the caption:

  • Take 1 tsp jeera (cumin)

It is necessary to use this cautiously prepared drink into your meals to successfully prevent bloating. It should be taken after meals to increase its efficiency.

"You'll feel lighter, less gassy, and your gut will thank you," Palak Nagpal said.

Bloating may be mistaken for other causes of a more prominent belly, such as looseness or laxity of the abdominal wall. This is common, particularly for older women and women with children.
