Indigestion:

It can occur if you:

Eat too much

Eat fatty foods

Eat too quickly, without chewing

Drink too much alcohol with meals

Try to avoid these triggers

Gas (flatulence):

Some foods are more likely to cause gas because:

Try to avoid these foods

Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you need more information
