Colon produces enzymes that break down remaining nutrients and produce gas as a side. Although normal, flatulence is a problem that could potentially embarrass.
In addition, excess gas can lead to belching, pain, and bloating. The good news, the production of excess gas can be prevented by following simple tips:
1. Pay attention to your eating habits. Know what foods make your stomach produce excess gas.
2. Reduce the amount of air swallowed into the stomach. Chew food slowly and eat food in small sizes. Avoid drinking a lot while eating.
Do not talk and chew at the same time. Stop chewing gum and tobacco use. Also avoid carbonated drinks.
3. Improve performance by adding fiber in the gut of food. Take laxatives if necessary to reduce constipation.
4. Stop or reduce the intake of foods that cause gas. Carbohydrates, sugars, and fats are foods that can trigger excess gas.
A variety of high-fiber foods such as beans, broccoli, and cauliflower can also trigger the production of gas.
In addition, apples, bananas, grapes, corn, cucumber, red onion, garlic, and radishes also can cause excess gas.
5. Reduce your intake of sugar and flour. Consider using charcoal (carbon) that is able to actively absorb the gas. Try eating brown rice, papaya, and pineapple.
