gastric distress
Upset digestive system
Gastric distress is discomfort or upset in the stomach and digestive system—nausea, bloating, cramping, or general queasiness.
The phrase sounds clinical, often appearing on medication warnings or in polite conversation when specifics would be unwelcome: The rich food caused some gastric distress.
