Posted on Fri, 25 Apr 2014
Question: Hello dr My husband s bloating.,burbing Discomfort of stomach are well controlled by a diet plan given by dietcian That is good fiber diet with avoiding fries oil masala more spices, milk,heavy citric fruits. With eating at correct time as at 9am 12pm 3pm 8pm with in between green tea and buttermilk twice XXXXXXX biscuits. Now problem is he must follow the diet or he gets gad bloating. Even if he eats little spicy or oil he feels discomfort If we eat out during marriages or function he need to take gelucil or eno at night once or twice due to gas. Z this taking gelucil once in week 2 to 4 doses is ok wen he had problems. We showed nearly 3 Dr's in dz 7 years all says he had no problems with health and gives 10days tablet but no effect. Only diet helps him. Z he had any issues? He cant drink even wine (in office fns) as he had to suffer for 10 to 15 days.but one way it is good he cant booz.but I want to what is his stomach so sensitive

Brief Answer: Improve bacterial commensals and strenghten mucosa Detailed Answer: Thanks for writing in HCM. I am happy to read that your husband is getting relief by dietary modifications. Excessive flatulence suggests incompetence or inadequacy of the indigenous bacterial flora. to improve that I would suggest the following 1. a glass of buttermilk daily for 4 weeks will help significantly. If he cannot tolerate buttermilk the I would suggest the following One XXXXXXX of econorm powder with a glass of water in the morning daily for 14 days. Please note that he is not suppose d to eat or drink anything half an hour before and half an hour after this medication. this will strengthen his intestinal flora. Next would be the role of natural antacids instead of gellusil. Banana and cucumber are the best . They should be coupled with every meal. To improve the strength of the intestinal lining I would suggest glutamine sachets. Half a XXXXXXX everyday in a glass of plain water everyday for 15 days. This measures will help reduce the frequency of hyper acidity episodes and relieve symptoms. I hope this answers your doubt. regards
