What is 'bloating'?

Bloating is a common feeling of fullness, tightness, or swelling in the abdomen, often after eating. It happens when gas builds up in the digestive system. The story suggests that short walks can help reduce bloating, likely by stimulating the digestive process and helping to move gas through the system more efficiently, making you feel more comfortable.
