Lemon water is a nourishing and beneficial liquid. One must be careful not to drink large gulps at once, but to sip gently over time, such as 4-6 ounces over 30-45 minutes. Lemon water will ease stomach upset because it neutralizes stomach acid. Lemon water is most beneficial when loose stool is occurring, as the lemon replaces bicarbonate lost in diarrhea stool. It is essential with bloating to consume small portions at a time of any food and drink.

No, it doesn't. Bloating, especially after eating, is often caused by carbohydrate malabsorption. Reducing carbs in the diet usually helps. Try the low FODMAP diet. Sometimes, constipation contributes to bloating as well.
