If your belly feels flat in the morning but looks and feels like a “food baby” by afternoon, this episode of Dishing Up Nutrition is for you. Nutritionist Kara Carper and dietitian Brandy Buro break down the real reasons you’re still bloated after eating--from common triggers like dairy, gluten, sugar alcohols, carbonated drinks, and food additives to deeper issues like gut bacteria imbalances, low stomach acid, and SIBO. They’ll help you spot your personal triggers, explain when probiotics and digestive enzymes actually help (and when they don’t), and walk you through what a bloat-friendly, real-food day of eating can look like.
