Food Intolerance
This will cause pain half an hour to one hour after a meal. It means a certain kind of food does not agree with the stomach or intestine. It can be caused by too low stomach acidity, but if it doesn’t improve when you optimize you stomach acid production, you may have to eliminate certain foods from your diet.
Food intolerances are often highly individual and mysterious. In some cases, they are due to physical or emotional stress or exposure to environmental toxins rather than a reaction to the foods themselves. Lactose intolerance results from a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which is needed to digest the sugar in milk. At least one out of 10 people worldwide shares this deficiency and develops bloating, abdominal pain and, often, diarrhea when consuming milk. Gluten intolerance is caused by an abnormal immune response to the major protein in wheat and some other grains.
