Abdominal Bloating 1 - 2 Hours After Eating

Abdominal bloating one to two hours after eating is an indication of digestive dysfunction with pancreatic insufficiency and / or hypochlorhydria with a need for stomach acid supplementation.  The delayed nature of the bloating suggests that the cause lies in the small instestine, and to some extend the colon.

Common causes of abdominal bloating 1 - 2 hours after eating include:

  • Hypochlorhydria
  • Pancreatinc insufficiency 
  • Bowel toxemia
  • Dysbiosis
