Bad Gas!!!!!!!!

[applesauce25]

Just wanted to know if anyone could let me know why i'm getting alot of gas sitting in my stomach? Making my stomach feel a little weird. I eat very good lots of grilled chicken,lots of veggies,brown rice,turkey. Am I not drinking enough water?

bothers me mostly at night when i'm laying down. does anyone have this same problem or is this just me?

are you belching? and is any of it acid tasting? any burning (heartburn)?

does milk relieve it? anything make it better or worse?

Are you eating anything that you usually dont eat? That makes me get it.

You can definately get gas from eating "good foods" like you say.

when you bend over, like touching your toes do you notice the pain/heartburn getting worse?

and also when you are lying down flat like when you sleep?



if so it sounds like you are getting some reflux of your stomach acid, milk would ease the heartburn pain if you were getting it. worth going to see a doc if you get it a lot, just so he can give you something. all that acid sloshing up your food pipe isnt great for it and long term damage can be done, provided this is the cause of your belching...

I constantly deal with bad gas. -=( Totaly embarassing and annoying. My bf wanted to stay one night, but i was terrified i would do it in my sleep all night. I guess some of us just have more problematic stomachs? Something that might help however, PROBIOTICS!! Garden of Life makes a great one. It builds up the good bacteria in your colon, and helps with the digestion of foods that would otherwise sit in their and putrefy. Worth a shot.

the cause may be from eating to late, you should avoid eating late and going to bed....causes reflux

I get that too, usually when i take in a lot of protein, i eat two of those tums chewable pills and it works wonders, dont get heart burn tho just stomach bloated, looked like a pregnant woman once

There can be a possibilty that you are allergic to something you are eating. Do you get tired as well after eating? A lot of times high protein causes gad. Poor thing!

LOL! I have never heard of a woman having that problem. I wouldn't kick you out of bed for farting! But you better be able to take as well as you can give!

I find yogurt helps, that's in the same vein as probiotics. You are introducing beneficial intestinal flora.

One thing that is highly recommended on here for the proverbial "protein farts" is ginger. It doens't work for me AT ALL.

With me, gas is a perk. It keeps people out of my office.

Seriously, gas is caused by food rotting in your colon. Some people are affected worse than others. Are you taking protein powder supps? I eat 1.5 to 2 g's of protein per pound (so alot) per day and I have bad gas all the time. When I cut back on my protein supps, the gas is less.

That depends on the quality of your protein powders

Get an Ionic Breeze, problem solved. I heard that gas is an indication of a well working digestive system.

I guarantee I can outfart anyone, anywhere. I've had girls break off dates because of it. Don't know what causes it, but charcoal capsules have helped some.
