Eating cooked jiló is an excellent homemade solution for those with a full stomach, gas, burping and swollen belly, but another possibility is to drink dandelion tea because it helps with digestion, or to take coriander tincture.
Poor digestion usually causes symptoms such as a full stomach, a bloated stomach, gas coming out through belching, and breathing may be difficult because the abdomen is distended. What you can do to combat these symptoms is to take small sips of cold water, as this helps to push gastric contents, and facilitates digestion.
Here's how to prepare each of the recipes mentioned above:
1. Cooked jiló
Jiló is an easily digestible fruit that can be eaten regularly because it helps to calm stomach acidity. It has a bitter taste, but a good way to remove the bitterness from the jiló, making it more tasty, is to wrap the jiló in salt to remove its water and then you must remove the excess salt and cook the jiló normally.

Method of preparation
Put the ingredients in a pan and cook, remove from heat when it is soft.
2. Coriander tincture

Add the coriander seeds to the cup with alcohol and soak for 5 days. This process is called maceration, and allows the greatest amount of nutrients and flavor to be extracted from coriander seeds.
After the determined time, the mixture should be strained and with a drop counter, add 20 drops of this home remedy in a glass of water (200 ml) and take it once a day.
3. Dandelion tea

Avoiding eating foods that cause gas is also a strategy that must be adopted daily, such as peas, chickpeas, broccoli, cabbage, corn, sugar and sweeteners. In addition, combining high-fat foods such as bacon with other high-fiber foods such as whole grain bread can cause heartburn and poor digestion. The combination of pork and lactose can also cause a gas sensation in the stomach, so it should be avoided.
