Chronic belching 10 years..

Gigi14,
Thank you so much for your suggestions. I don’t have belching/food log yet and this could provide good info. I think the majority of belching for me is swallowing air , so figuring out how it is happening under my radar will probably help a lot. I am inspired to try digestive enzymes again by your post . The majority of my belching does not appear food triggered, but certainly could be partially, maybe more than I think . I think I may ask new GI Dr to explore the parasite /fungus possibility again, it had been about 4 years since the last two SIBO tests.
I would be interested in your and others experience(s) with dietary fiber supplements. My GI told me I need something do to diverticulitis discovered during colonoscopy, and to maintain movement. Intestinal gas is excessive 24/7 for me (hard to know severity because nobody talks about gas ) and belching).
Thanks again!

I do not use dietary fiber supplements. But, I do add chia seeds or flax seeds to my smoothies. But please check with your doc that these are ok due to your diverticulosis. Nuts are also good sources of fiber. Google foods high in fiber - there’s one listed from the Mayo Clinic. And I highly recommend keeping a food diary and comment on your body’s reaction. It’s the best way to eliminate what doesn’t work or gives you problems vs what does work.
