Dear Dolly Jethani
Thank you for the question
Digestive issues such as excessive burping can be a result of indigestion, GERD (Gastro oesophageal reflux disease), IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), Intolerance of lactose/gluten and/or an underlying health condition. For further diagnosis and assistance please do contact your health care professional.
Here are a few guidelines for general digestive health.
- Eat a well-balanced diet includes all the food groups in the right quantity which thereby provides you with all the essential macro and micro nutrients that your body requires daily for proper functioning
- Avoid large, heavy meals, and practice portion guidance.
- Do not skip your meals, have small frequent meals at regular intervals.
- Food should be eaten slowly and chewed well as fast eating provokes gastric feeding reflex.
- Avoid lying down immediately after your meal consumption
- Limit the intake of deep fried foods and carbonated beverages.
- Fiber is an important part pf your diet that helps maintain a normal digestive sytem. Whole grains, millets, fruits like apple, orange, and vegetables such as carrot, garlic, green beans etc., are good sources of fiber.
- If Loose stools/ Diarrhoea is present limit excess fiber and dairy intake.
- Include prebiotics such as banana, soyabean, garlic etc., good sources of probiotics like yogurt, buttermilk etc., to maintain a healthy gut.
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day
- Have a gap of minimum 2-3 hours between bedtime and your last meal
- Engage in physical activity for a minimum of 30-45 minutes for at least 5 days a week.
- Try to follow a good sleep regimen in terms of both quantity and quality.
