A member asked:

My husbands stomach swells up and is hard as a brick after he eats every time. why is he bloating up after every meal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maldigestion...: Post prandial abdominal bloating is frequently the result of eating too much volume of food or consumption of a food trigger. The most common food culprits include wheat and fermentable carbohydrates (e.g. Lactose in dairy). Testing for celiac disease is recommended. Great diet information at ibsfree.Net. Good luck!
