Wedding season in Pakistan is a time for biryani, haleem, samosas, and endless rounds of dessert—but with all that indulgence often comes an unwelcome guest: bloating. Whether you're feasting at the mehndi or sampling every dish on the valima buffet, post-meal discomfort can quickly dampen your fun.
This shaadi season, let’s break the cycle. With simple tips, smart choices, and the magic of Versus Oh My Gut, you can savor every bite without regretting it later. Here’s how to tackle bloating so you can focus on enjoying the festivities.
What Causes Bloating During Wedding Season?
The lavish meals and irregular schedules during shaadi season often wreak havoc on our digestive systems. Here are a few common culprits:
-
Skipping Meals to "Save Room"
Starving yourself before a big wedding dinner can lead to overeating, straining your digestive system. -
Overindulging on Heavy Foods
Traditional wedding menus are packed with rich, oily, and spicy dishes that are harder to digest. -
Sodium Overload
Salans and snacks often contain high amounts of salt, which causes water retention and that dreaded bloated belly. -
Too Many Sweet Treats
Desserts like gulab jamun and kheer are high in sugar, disrupting gut bacteria and leading to gas and discomfort. -
Late-Night Feasting
Sitting or lying down after a heavy meal slows digestion, leaving you feeling heavy and bloated.
What’s in That Plate? Ingredients That Trigger Bloating
Wedding menus may be delicious, but they’re often packed with bloating triggers:
- Sodium: Achaar, chutneys, and salans contain hidden salt that makes you retain water.
- Fats: Fried snacks like pakoras and samosas slow digestion and cause gas buildup.
- Sugar: Desserts like ras malai ferment in the gut, producing gas and bloating.

Desi Wedding Hacks for a Bloat-Free Tummy
Here are some practical tips to stay bloat-free throughout the wedding season:
-
Hydrate Like a Pro
Sip water throughout the day to support digestion and flush out toxins. Avoid gulping large amounts immediately before or after meals to prevent bloating. -
Mind Your Portions
Sample everything, but stick to smaller servings. A little bit of nihari and biryani goes a long way! -
Go for a Digestive Walk
A light walk after meals can help food move through your digestive tract, preventing gas buildup. -
Skip Carbonated Drinks
Fizzy sodas may be tempting, but the trapped gas will leave you feeling even more bloated. Opt for infused water with ginger or lemon instead. -
Slow Down and Savor
Chew slowly and eat mindfully. Giving your body time to register fullness can help prevent overeating.
Herbal Teas: Your Post-Feast Friend
Soothe your tummy after a big meal with herbal teas made from ginger, peppermint, or fennel seed. These traditional remedies not only reduce bloating but also support overall gut health.
- Ginger Tea: Reduces inflammation and stimulates digestive enzymes.
- Peppermint Tea: Relaxes the digestive tract and alleviates cramping.
