5 Healthy Foods that Make You Feel Bloated
4. Starchy foods
Foods containing lots of starch. for example potatoes, maize, white flour, wheat and the likes cause bloating. Refined white flour especially causes bloating because it takes a lot of time to break down and get digested. It is used in making white bread, baking, biscuits, buns and similar food items. Hence, avoid and control its consumption.
