If you have been officially diagnosed with IBS, you could try Alflorex probiotic in the first instance. This has been scientifically studied for IBS. Bloating could be due to food intolerances, which Alflorex may help with. You might also want to try the Nerva gut directed hypnotherapy app if you feel that you are stressed. Stress can cause the mechanism that deals with the natural movement of gas in the system to not work properly, creating a build up that can cause the bloated feeling.
