I never had much of a problem with heartburn, but I used to sometimes get abdominal gas and bloating, to the point where my tummy would stick out and it was quite painful. The only thing tht would help would be lying down for a while. This went on, on and off, for years, and it seemed to get worse if I was tired or stressed.

Then low carb, and - hey presto! Doesn't happen anymore! Except for the time last year I cheated on pasta, and....guess what? Now I think maybe I have a mild wheat allergy. Whatever. My tummy's happy, I'm happy!
