Dear Manisha, Thank You for the question

Bloating can be a symptom of digestive issues such as constipation, IBS, intolerances etc., and/or due to an underlying health condition. For further diagnosis and assistance kindly contact your relevant health care professional.
Here are a few guidelines for general digestive health.
- Eat a well-balanced diet including minimum 5 serving of vegetables and 1 serving of fruit in a day as they are good sources of fiber and essential nutrients.
- Do not skip your meals, have small frequent meals at regular intervals.
- Healthy snacks in between meals are preferable.
- Avoid large, heavy meals, and practice portion guidance.
- Deep fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
- Food should be eaten slowly and chewed well as fast eating provokes gastric feeding reflex.
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day
- Engage in physical activity for a minimum of 30-45 minutes for at least 5 days a week.

Hope we have answered your query.
Wishing you a great day ahead
