Over the past few weeks I have been really bloated. I have taken these tablets which is ment to help bloateness but they don't seem to be working really. Any suggestions on how to stop this?

    I get that feeling when I've been eating too much, especially when I've been scoffing a load of fruit too. However, it doesn't sound like it's a simple case of eat less with you. I dunno. Keep taking the tablets!

    Hmm, I'd stay on the tablets for another week or so, n if nowts improved by then then i think a trip to the GP's in order :)

    Don't drink lots of water because it will make you even more bloated. Also cutdown on fiber and fizzy drinks.

    Try some Windez. If not go see your GP, I take Zoton for mine... mind yo, they can take about 2 weeks to works.

    Maybe water retention? In which case drinking loads of water is meant to help but does nowt for me I'm afraid :P I tend to try and drink less because I don't like feeling like a balloon :(

    one thing that might ease the bloat a bit is to cut down the amount of salt you consume, as this has the effect of making your body hold water... along with this, drink LOTS of flat water, and it might help... good luck:)
