A member asked:
Is there any way to stop my stomach from gurgling every time i lie down? i'm young and i exercise regularly and generally have a healthy diet...

Constipation: One major cause of rumbling is constipation, your intestines pushing against hard stools. Other causes are food reactions such as lactose. However, laying down creates a reflex of pathways which cause increased peristalsis, so it's normal to have some slight rumbling.
