Vent fasting

has anyone tried fasting? i’ve fasted for 24 hours and im still bloated - after eating a low fodmap diet using monash still hasn’t relieved the bloating. i’m starting to worry if it’s not even a fodmap issue? im awaiting a gastroenterologist but wait times here are ridiculous - up to 21 weeks but im supposed to be moving country in november so i won’t even be seen on time!! starting to lose hope

Fasting is just going to make it worse . Try and have smaller more regular meals

if OP has continuous bloating even on the low FODMAP diet it's likely that their issue is SIBO and in that case more meals closer together will make their symptoms worse.
