Gas, discomfort & bloating after eating

(This from a 16-year-old lad who adds that he has tried digestive enzymes and probiotics, with little relief. His problems usually occur after enjoying meat and/or starch.)

I have a sneaking suspicion you may be eating too quickly. Slow down. Chew your food well until it's mere pulp. Drinking your drink through a straw will also cut down on gasiness.

You may also want to try Beano and Gas-X. Once again, slow down, lad, or you may just get a speeding ticket.

Chew your food, my friends, and live!

Always consult your doctor before ingesting anything new, even if the product is over the counter.
