Do you feel bloated even when you don’t eat much?
This is very common among office workers in KL & Bukit Jalil.

Common symptoms include:

• Bloating even after small meals

• Tight or swollen abdomen

• Frequent burping

• Excessive gas

• No appetite in the morning

• Post-meal fatigue

• Indigestion with heaviness

From a TCM perspective, this is caused by weak digestion, Qi stagnation, and dampness accumulation.

 How TCM Understands Bloating

1 Spleen–Stomach Deficiency (Most common)

Weak digestion → food cannot move → bloating
Low appetite
Post-meal sleepiness

2 Liver Qi Stagnation (Stress-related bloating)

Stress blocks Qi movement
Frequent burping
Chest/abdominal tightness

3 Food Retention

Heavy stomach
Bad breath
Acid reflux
Bloating after overeating

4 Dampness Accumulation (Very common in Malaysia)

Sticky stools
Heaviness
Bloating
Water retention
