Stomach bloating in-flight
Wonder how many others experience an uncomfortable expansion of their stomach in-flight, which is magnified sitting for so long in cramped seats.
What helps with this? I tried simethicone (over-the-counter) before my flight and losing weight over the years. Still an issue.

1. Avoid sorbitol
2. Avoid carbonated beverages
3. Reduce fat intake
4. Stand up for a few minutes frequently.

I remember a trip report a few years back talking about some long haul flight with a plane load of flatulent pax. Hilarious reading, but no fun being there.

Do what I do - put the overhead air vent on full blast...and have it aimed NOT at you, but the person next to you...and blast a flatus away. Be sure it's a SBD and try not to laugh or make commotion when it hits you..........
