Health Tip: Getting Full Too Quickly
(HealthDay News) -- If you find yourself only able to eat a few bites of food before you feel "full," don't brush it off as a new weight-loss strategy, the U.S. National Library of Medicine advises.
The NLM lists these common causes of "early satiety," which is feeling full too quickly:
-
Your stomach is emptying too slowly.
-
Irritable bowel syndrome.
-
A tumor in your stomach or abdomen.
-
Heartburn.
-
An obstruction in the opening of the stomach to the intestine.
