Question : Hello Doctor,
I have a bloated feeling not only in the belly but nowadays in the Arm and chest region too. I feel the dresses have become tight.
I can understand that this can be because of "Fat" but I feel otherwise since my fat intake is controlled and I exercise too. I can't understand the sudden increase in size especially since I am taking Reeshape,
Moreover I get a bloated balloon like feeling.
Regards,
XXXX

Brief Answer:
Check for lipid metabolism
Detailed Answer:
Hello, XXXXXXX
First of all I apologize for late reply.
I can understand your worry.
1) Abdominal bloating is the condition in which person feels heaviness in abdomen (mainly center part of abdomen) after food intake. Most common reason for this is indigestion. Supplementation of intestinal digestive enzymes (like Unienzyme) help digestion process and thus gives relief from symptoms of indigestion.
2) Overall feeling of tightening may be due to increase girth of particular part of body, either due to fat accumulation or due to increase in bulk of muscle fibers. It is not necessary that regular exercise could prevent from deposition of fat on body parts. This fat deposition would be in subcutaneous tissue (under the skin). Also, this process does not have any correlation with indigestion.
3) I would suggest you to undergo lipid profile test (for cholesterol) and USG abdomen for liver (for structure of liver) based on your symptoms. These tests would give idea about lipid metabolism of your body.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any further query, I would be happy to help you.
Have a good day!
