Type of liquids

I know the general advice is to avoid caffeinated drinks & fizzy drinks but sometimes water even gives me trouble, especially if I drink too much of it. I’ll get that familiar crampy feeling in my stomach together with some bloating & feeling of fullness which as you’ve guessed it, is generally relieved with some burps. I also find that water taken early in the day ie when I get up and haven’t eaten anything causes me no problems but the story changes later in the day after I’ve had some food. Even 2 hours after food is enough to cause bloating. Honestly it’s soul destroying.

  1. I hear you. How about juice? Lots of varieties out there, maybe that can be an option you can explore? -Elizabeth (team member)

    1. Too much water also gives me problems! :/ I avoid all juices, all caffeine, all carbonated drinks, and all sport drinks. The only thing I have that I refuse to give up is wine lol

      I find myself not drinking water for days when traveling...so I feel your frustration :/

      1. I burp after any drink, even if it's just juice.
