Doctors told The Guardian that a healthy stomach is closely linked to good daily routines.
This includes eating a diet rich in fibre, vegetables, fruit, and whole grains.
At the same time, experts recommend limiting alcohol, very fatty foods, and highly processed products. Regular meals and drinking enough water can also support digestion.
According to doctors, fibre may also reduce bloating and help the body eliminate waste more effectively.

The impact of stress
Experts also stress that both stress and sleep play an important role in stomach health. Stress can affect digestion and lead to both pain and bloating.
Poor sleep can also worsen symptoms in people with sensitive stomachs, The Guardian reports.
Exercise is therefore highlighted as important. Even short walks after meals may help digestion.
Concern among doctors
Several specialists are particularly concerned that more young people are developing bowel cancer.

The exact cause is still unclear, but some researchers suspect that highly processed foods may play a role.
Doctors therefore advise people to react to symptoms such as blood in the stool, long-term changes in bowel habits, or unexplained weight loss.
A healthy stomach is not about quick fixes, but about maintaining stable and healthy habits in everyday life.
