Eating starch can lead to hiccups due to the way it is processed in the body. Starch is a carbohydrate that requires extensive chewing and digestion, and if consumed too quickly, it can cause air swallowing or irritation of the diaphragm. This irritation can trigger involuntary contractions of the diaphragm, resulting in hiccups. Additionally, large portions of starchy foods may lead to bloating, further contributing to diaphragm spasms.
