    If so WHY? I'm more plagued since I got on a higher fiber diet, I eat more cabbage and beans than I ever have, this has got to be the reason...But these foods keep cleaned out.
    I pop a Bean Assist capsule but maybe not often enough.

    A vicious cycle.....

    As the old rhyme goes:

    Beans, beans, the musical tart.
    The more you eat, the more you fart.
    The more you fart, the better you feel.
    So let's eat beans for every meal!

    Everyone passes gas. If not they'd explode. :D

    I expect to be gassy after eating certain foods. To get some relief I mix a teaspoon of baking soda in warm water. It has worked for me even when I feel nauseated I drink it.

    I'm laughing, isn't it the Chinese who cherish their Toots? Or the Japanese, one or the other....bring the toots on.

    In my entire life, I have never done such a thing.

    My father always referred to them as "rectal zephyrs".

    I don't know about tooting, but some societies consider a resounding belch at the end of a meal the highest of compliments to the cook/host.

    Since I've been taking prebiotics, I've had easier, more frequent bowel movements. But it's not caused me gas. I guess there's a middle ground between an increased population of out-gassing bacteria and having stuff escorted through my system faster and easier.

    I don't know that I'd be taking too many things that might make your pH too base. The side effects are worse than the problem. I've heard of people getting a dog so they can blame it, but my dog used to look at me every time she farted, so it sometimes backfires (so to speak.)

    You could try this:

    The downside is that you will then breath in farts through your mouth. So if you go this route, buy yourself some mints.

    Yeh, but the insertion process can be "challenging."
