I have had excessive gas for a long time. I would eat even a tiny fruit and I would feel gassy. I tried to solve it this year by drinking lime with water first thing in the morning and not eating after that until I come home from school. What's wrong?

If I had a can of chili for lunch on Monday, could it still cause me to feel bloated and gassy the next day? And would drinking soda increase the occurance of the gas?
