Dear Lucky:

Improperly digested foods can cause bloatting and gas formation- some foods may be more "gas forming" than others like beans
However, this could also be due to some organic cause which needs to be ruled out by a gastroenterologist.

We need some more details before your question can be answered:

1. Could you specify the kind of food, e.g , if it is dairy product, etc
2. How are the bowel habits - regular, frequent diarrhoea or constipation, etc
3. What is the lifestyle (sedentary or active)
4. Are you on any medication for any other illness
 
We should be able to give you guidance after we receive answers to the above.
