According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, gas and bloating are common issues stemming from the digestion of certain complex carbohydrates.

So when considering budget-friendly options like Target's Up & Up brand, it's crucial to understand what factors truly indicate quality beyond brand recognition.
