  • Because you're eating stuff with lots of fibre/protein in it! Most likely haha.

    Me too! I take miralax every other day and eat prunes everyday. I was doing flaxseed but if you don't consume enough water daily it will constipate you as well. I drink 128 oz a day but I'm scared that wouldn't be enough so I stop taking it.

    I'm the opposite......when I eat well I think my body absorbs and uses everything I eat with no waste and when I eat junk food.....it goes right through.

    I agree though it's probably the fiber.

    For real, though. I mean, I ain't a lady, but do you know how hard it is to try and blame farts on invisible people when you're in a bowling league and one slips out when you throw your ball? I end up walkin' around the alley, crop-dustin' them bad boys around to different spots of the house.

    Copious amounts of yogurt will stop this in it's tracks. The actives in yogurt produce a gas that is way less vile and much smaller volume. I fart a lot less now than my previous Pizza, wings, beer, sausage, potato, and anything else i can shovel in diet. Do the yogurt every day twice for special people.

    I never fart, but if I did, they would smell like birthday cake.
  • I was just noticing today that not only have I become more flatulent, but my BO has gotten worse. I used to be able to sweat at least a little and it was no big deal, but I even think about perspiring now and it smells like I just went 2sies in my pits.

    I really don't think I'm eating any more fiber than before. I am drinking more water and less less soda, and eating less sugar and fat. I think I may be eating more veggies and carbs. I swear I may have to go back to burgers and fries if I can't get this scent issue figured out.

    Good to know...so it's the yogurt I eat everyday that keeps me from having the gas problem. However, if I were to cheat and eat Burger King...my kids would know it!

    The bacteria and enzymes that work on grease/fat are the worst of all. that is exactly why BK/McD/Wendy's all make you gas up.

    Lower your protein and increase carbs by about 10% I'll bet it stops. High protein, low carb, low cal will make you a bit smelly. give it a shot.

    Hahaha, lucky you!! :P

    As for the rest of us dealing with flatulence issues, I'm not sure why, but tea really helps! A cup of unsweetened tea or hot water really helps settle my stomach, and helps eliminate those bladder and gaseous problems.
