A habits check, not a medical test.

What this check looks at

Bloating and discomfort often follow how and when you eat. This check asks about meal timing, how fast you eat, fibre, water, movement, and evenings. Your answers describe habits. They cannot find a food intolerance or diagnose a digestive condition.

Who it is for

This is for adults who often feel bloated or uncomfortable after meals. Choose what fits an ordinary week. The NHS advises a GP visit if you feel bloated regularly or it does not go away. [1]

What you get

Your answers lead to a personal habits summary and a first area to focus on. The shared quiz continues from the answer you select above. You can review your result before you choose whether to join the paid membership. A card is not needed for this check. Membership terms and the price appear before payment.

A useful habit to know

The NHS suggests regular exercise and chewing with your mouth closed to avoid swallowing air. For constipation, the NIDDK advises enough fibre and plenty of liquids. These are habits, not a treatment. [1]
