How To Stop Passing Constant Gas?
I am 27 years old, and I pass gas constantly. I have a consistent diet, very low in carbs and refined sugars, and I eat only enough dairy to get a bit of calcium. I have taken all the over the counter advice (eat slowly, don t chew gum, no soda, no potatoes, no beans) and I still have major problems. What can I do?
