Question 1

what should i eat and drink to eliminate or at least reduce the gas and bloating in my system?

Accepted Answer

Try LactoseFree diet: A common cause of gas and bloating is lactose intolerance, even if you have not had problems with milk in the past. Lactose intolerance can start at any time, and symptoms can vary from day to day. Try a lactose-free diet for 1-2 weeks (no regular milk, cheese, ice cream, cottage cheese, sour cream, ranch dressing, yogurt, or milk chocolate). You may drink lactose-free milk, soy or almond milk.

Question 2

have been to the doctors and i may have ibs or a food intolerance, how can i reduce gas and bloating?

Accepted Answer

Increase fiber : Often a higher fiber diet will help gas and bloating think of metamucil crackers that taste good. Benefiber dissolves well in most any liquid and is not granular or gritty.

Anxiety: Consult with your doctor to try to determine the cause of your distress, for instance is it anxiety, diet, lack of exercise or all three.  See a nutritionist if it is diet related and if anxiety seem to be a key variable ask for a referral to a  mental health professional who can help you learn to calm yourself. Best.

Question 9

i am currently breastfeeding a 2 months old baby. i wanted to add a probiotic supplement because i am having gut issues (occasional bloating and very very smelly farts, sulphuric farts).

is it safe while breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Probiotics are not like drugs that might go into the milk. They stay in your gut or are digested like any other food.

Question 10

i have a stomach problem for 6 days. i have stomach ache, slight cramps, bloating, gassy feeling. i poop somewhat but cant fart alot only a little.

Accepted Answer

Infection: With 6 days of duration, the majority of times these constellation of symptoms are secondary to an infection (either viral or bacterial) even in the absence of diarrhea.  If this is the first time this is happening to you, I would suggest to stay hydrated, keep a light diet for now and monitor your temperature, your belly pain and your stool. You might also consider a virtual consult.
