I am bloated no matter what I eat. My stomach always feels like a balloon.

There are a variety of factors that may be involved here. Eating too quickly and neglecting to chew properly is one. Drinking with food is another. Fizzy drinks taken at any time may cause bloating. Also, eating when stressed is generally detrimental to digestive processes.

Ensuring that your bowel is moving at least once or more daily will reduce bloating.

Some people react badly to certain foods such as bread and pasta and benefit from avoiding them, and others find that mixing fresh fruit with other foods increases bloating and is best avoided.

You could try Molkosan Orignal, traditionally used to reduce bloating, though do let the doctor know if bloating continues as it is important to get it checked by a health care professional.
