I'm taking Hepamerz tablets to help with my digestion, but I've been feeling bloated and uncomfortable in my stomach ever since. Do you have any suggestions for a different medication that might work better for me?

Its possible that Hepamerz is causing the bloating and discomfort. You might want to try digestive aids like Dysflatyl or Spasmocanulase, which can help with bloating. However, it's a good idea to consult your doctor to ensure it's the right choice for you.

I'm curious about using jeera water for digestion since I have a sensitive gut. How often should I drink it, and when is the best time during the day for it to be effective?

Jeera water can aid digestion, but for sensitive gut, start with small amounts (14 teaspoon of cumin seeds in 1 liter water) and observe tolerance; drink it 1-2 times a day, ideally after meals or before bedtime, and avoid drinking it on an empty stomach to minimize potential discomfort.
