Try not to eat much of these foods: any whole grains, beans, lentils, cabbage, bananas, apricots, prunes, chocolate, onions and sprouts. Although many of these foods are very healthy for you, if you have a belching problem, they will make it worse because they're made up of a specific type of starch and are not digested well in the stomach.
