Question 1

can bloating and gas caused by soda and chili last a few days after having those items?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful : While carbonated beverages produce stomach gas, usually expelled by burping fairly soon after ingestion, and beans in chili produce stomach and bowel gas, this usually passes after a day or 2 at the most. If your gas is continuing perhaps it is related to gaseous food you are eating such as garlic, onion, cruciform vegetables (cabbage family) or other beans. Hummus is made from bean paste.

Question 2

if you've gone months without any soda, but start drinking a couple glasses a day, would it be considered normal for it to cause gas & bloating?

Accepted Answer

: Drinking carbonated beverages means you are ingesting CO2 gas which often results in burping and occasionally gas. Bloating may be a different problem, but if resolved by expelling that gas, up or down is a sign of retained gas.  Swallowed air, excess CO2, or certain foods like beans, onions, garlic and cruciform vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, cabbage) may cause the bloat.

Question 3

how long can bloating, gas & pain (from the bloat & gas) last after having chili for lunch as well as drinking soda for the first time in about 3 weeks? can it last a couple of days?

Accepted Answer

Gas chili: Everyone is different. Keep a diary and you can document in u how long it takes.  Discuss with Dr. different beans may do it in some not others. Differing gut biomes also related is my guess. So experiment different beans and chili recipes. Avoid ones that bloat u.

Question 4

if you've gone without drinking soda for 5 months but start drinking it again & experience gas, bloating & discomfort/pain from it, is it best to stop drinking it again? or could your body eventually get used to the soda again so the issues go away?

Accepted Answer

: The bloating that occurs with most sodas reflects the natural  release of the carbonation in most such drinks. The release of this gas (CO2) combines with air you swallow during feeds &amp; gas released by germs in the gut to produce bloating. I find it an expected outcome whenever the combination of these factors occur. If this bothers you just don't drink sodas.

Question 5

if you've gone 5 months without any soda, but started drinking multiple glasses of it again over the last few days, how long would any side effects like bloating, gas & abdominal discomfort last after starting to drink them again?

Accepted Answer

: You will answer that with your own experience. I don't think any doctor can answer that for you.
