Excessive flatulence. what to take or do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Multiple: You could try using probiotics daily, which can help restore the normal gut bacteria to its appropriate balance. Also, there are products containing simethicone that help to break down the gas in the gut (bean-o, gas-x).
