Bloating, Dr Kiran says, is because of there is a lot of salt that we consume while eating out regularly. Flight food can especially cause bloating, since it has a lot of sodium in it. To avoid bloating when you are travelling, you can either avoid salt on your flight, or you can opt for not consuming salt after 8 pm. You can opt for fruits or chia seeds soaked in almond milk and some fruits after 8 pm in case you feel hungry. This will help you feel fresh and healthy the next day.
