Hi Neetu,
I’m so sorry to hear you are having horrible bloating problems for the past few years.
The only thing that pops in my mind at this point is food intolerance.
Have you ever tried excluding food groups from your diet?
In many cases bloating can be cause by lactose or gluten intolerance, or even casein intolerance or just as a reaction of a certain substitute present in processed foods.
The fastest way to learn if you are allergic or intolerant to these substances, would be to just do a blood tests for both Celiac disease and lactose tolerance, and go from there.

Since I became vegan, I found out that certain foods were causing bloating and gas, such as pickled foods, and other canned veggies.
They would cause so much gas and bloat, that I shortly realized they are just not for me.
When it comes to food groups it can be really tricky, since there is lactose and gluten in products you would never even think they had it.
You know your body best, so just be patient and find out what’s causing the problem.

And please keep me updated on the results <3
Sending love,
Monica

Hi Kel, the post is really inspiring. But I am really frustrated by the bloating. Since two three year my stomach is continuously same and feel tight all the time . Even in the morning when I haven’t eated anything. I eat healthy 90 percent of the time and drink hot water. Do a little yoga . But my concern is that my stomach is same since last few years. Could you please reply on my doubt would be really helpful.

Hi, Monica. It’s so good to know that you and other young healthy and active girls are posting the real body ups and downs. I’m a 44 woman, active and trying to eat healthy but like every woman can admit ,bloating is unavoidable . This is the truth ,girls have to accept and love their own bodies in every stage. I hope that many young girls see your post and acknowledge that .

I have had very painful bloating my whole life. I recently learned that it’s from sugar mainly fructose high foods. That even means natural sugars that are high in fructose like honey and agave. I remember spending the night at my grandmothers house and always being very bloated to the point I couldn’t even stand up straight by the afternoon. Looking back I realize it’s because we always ate oatmeal or cream of wheat with honey for breakfast. The condition is called fructose malabsorption and I think it’s more common than anyone knows. Anything with high fructose corn syrup in it kills me! I wish I had known about it as a child and young adult. It would’ve helped me through many painful events where I just had to suck it up and endure the pain.
