15 Foods that Cause Bloating

Onions

Onions are a type of underground bulb veggies with a powerful and unique taste. They are often used in salads, side dishes, and cooked meals. Although onions are typically consumed in small quantities, they are one of the main sources of fructans, a form of soluble fibers that would lead to bloating. In addition, many people can be intolerant or sensitive to some components in onions, particularly raw onions. Thus, cooking onions before eating would help minimize those digestive issues. If possible, try to use other fresh spices and herbs as an alternative. [4]
