                                            Thanks for the question.
Excess gas formation is generally harmless and may not be related to any underlying condition. Common causes of such gas formation are swallowed air, antibiotics, laxatives, constipation, food intolerance, fiber diet, artificial additives, chronic infections and some inflammatory bowel conditions like crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
Foods XXXXXXX in lactose or gluten, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes can cause more gas formation. Foods that cause gas formation include beans, onions, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, artichokes, asparagus, pears, apples, peaches, prunes, sugar-free candies and chewing gum, whole-wheat bread, XXXXXXX cereals or muffins, milk, cream, ice cream, ice milk, and beer, sodas and other carbonated beverages.
Therefore a few things that I suggest and which can be helpful are:
Try to identify and avoid the foods that affect you.
Avoid fried and fatty foods.
For time being cut back on high-fiber foods.
Reduce milk products.
Try supplements of the enzyme lactase .
Try charcoal tablets.
Eat slowly and avoid talking while eating.
In the meantime, please consider consulting a gastroenterologist to rule out any possible underlying cause. Your doctor will likely determine what's causing your gas and gas pains based on your medical history, a review of your dietary habits and a physical exam.
Hope this answers your question. Please ask if there are doubts.
