How To Overcome The Problem Of Gas And Bloating?

The last 3-4 weeks I've been having a lot of bloating and the need to have bowel movements 3-4 times a day. My diet hasn't changed but my stools are small and quite green in color. Also, I have started having a lot of gas. Any suggestions how to combat this? I have tried Gas X and charcoal tablets. They don't seem to help.

Hi i read ur problem of excessive gas formation and bloating.There r many factors which causes excessive gas production like diet,medication,psychiatric factor and systemic disease.Legumes,beans,apple,prunes can all be fermented resulting into gas production. Narcotics,analgesics,anxiety and depression also causes this.Diabetes and hypothyroidism also a great cause of excessive gas production.Investigations are necessary to rule out cause is FBS,ELECTROLITE,LFT,PLAIN AXR .My suggestion is that stop smoking and gum chewing if use.Bacterial overgrowth may contribute and may need treating.Modification in the dietory habit and take 10-12glass of boil water everyday.U can take TRIPHLA POWDER at night with boil water in one teaspoon everyday.
