As we approach the festive season, we’re getting ready to start indulging in our favourite food and drink, but one thing you’ll want to avoid, other than over-indulging, is bloating.

Recognising what drinks make you more bloated is important so you can avoid them. Alcohol does cause inflammation to the gastrointestinal lining of the gut and this results in bloating.
