Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear if your fasting means you stomach and intestines not ready to digest the food what you have. And your stomach shrink size.

So eating much amount of fat with more carbs gives rise to bloating.

Better to break fasting with simple juices like water melon, apple juices.

Treatment
Avoid spices in your diet
Tab. Simethicone twice a day.
Use probiotics.
Tab. Rifaximine 200mg if heavy bloating.
Tab Nexium before breakfast.
