Digestion and bloating

For digestion, the most useful clue is often timing: what changed in the last 24 hours?

What may be happening

Digestion changes can be shaped by stress, meal timing, rich foods, alcohol, constipation, travel, medication, and hormonal shifts. Patterns matter more than one bad evening.
