There are certain foods that are notorious for causing gas, including beans, broccoli, cabbage, pears, apples and milk. Carbonated drinks and certain alcoholic drinks may cause the same problem.

Constipation is found to be one of the most important cause of bloated stomach. Food with high fibre content as well as high fat content may lead to bloating. This may be also due to the presence of too low acid content in stomach. The gas released during the digestion of food may also cause bloating.
