How can you stop passing wind all the time you also take 20mg ofAmitriptyline for a urinary tract problem. I am fit and healthy I eat well and exercise regularly. i take a probiotic everyday.?

Answer 1

Gas is a naturally occurring side effect of healthy digestion. It occurs when food breaks down into its variety of components.

Gas is also created by the microbes that are being fed by the probiotics.

Unless a doctor has specifically recommended the probiotics, you are more than likely just giving the microbes more to digest which in turn creates additional gas.

Most healthy foods create gas because they digest easier and break down into components that pass through the system quickly.

A not very well publicized side effect of eating healthy, exercising and taking probiotics is an increase in gas production.

The simple fact is an unhealthy diet that leaves the digestive system sluggish, creates less gas.

There aren't really healthy options that reduce gas production; though if you only need short term solutions (such as a special meeting or date), there are products such as gasx or beeno, but I do not recommend making any of them into a habit.
