What Is The Cure For Upset Stomach, Excessive Gas Odors From Intestine And Slow Elimination?

I have a problem with slow elimination, regular upset stomach, excessive gas odors in my intestinal and my food feels like it ferments in side me. I've seen a gastroenterologist who claims I normal and said just cut back on the fiber. It's very upsetting to me and others around me.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There are some foods that are associated with increased gas production. Many of these foods are the fibrous foods which is the reason your gastroenterologist would have suggested cutting back on some of these.

Some foods that you can consider eliminating are bran, peas, beans, legumes,potatoes, most fruit.

In addition you can consider reducing the use of lactose products, carbonated drinks, spicy foods, corn , noodles.

I hope this helps
