The average person does farting without odor five to fifteen times per day. A bad diet may cause you to have more flatulence every day.
What causes flatulence? Check out these six causes and remedies for gas.
Low stomach acidity
Microbes make hydrogen and methane gas when they break down carbs and fiber. This is what causes flatulence.
Your big intestine is where this procedure is expected to take place. This is associated with SIBO when it takes place in your small intestine (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). Numerous other intestinal problems might result from SIBO.
The pH of your stomach should range from 1 to 3, which is rather acidic. Your digestive system is stressed without a high level of stomach acidity, which can result in a variety of digestive problems.
The best remedies for low stomach acidity:
• Betaine hydrochloride
• Apple cider vinegar
Ginger can also help soothe the stomach.
Food intolerance
Food intolerance is another reason for gas. When your body is deficient in the enzymes needed to break down lactose, you may experience lactose intolerance, which is a frequent issue. This results in an abundance of gas. You can either avoid lactose or consume lactose-degrading enzymes.
Gluten intolerance is also common—if you’re on Healthy Keto, you don’t have to worry about gluten or grains.
Probiotics can strengthen your bacteria and possibly boost the synthesis of enzymes.
Gas-producing foods
Avoid these common gas-producing foods:
• Fruit
• Beans
• Legumes
• Starches (like potatoes and rice)
• Sugar
• Certain cruciferous vegetables (Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage)
• Onions
Instead, consume more:
• Lettuce
• Tomato
• Zucchini
• Olives
• Avocado
Sugar alcohols and fiber
When ingested in excess, fibre, sugar alcohols, and keto-friendly low-calorie sweeteners can all upset the stomach. Reduce your consumption of these keto delicacies if you start to get gas.
Chewing gum
Chewing gum and chewing with your mouth open can cause you to swallow excess air. Avoid chewing with your mouth open.
Carbonation
Soda and other carbonated drinks can increase gas in your system.
