A summer barbecue is one of life’s simple pleasures. But too many hot dogs, hamburgers, baked beans and ice cream cones can give way to another, less-pleasant fact of life: Gas.
Daily flatulence is normal and necessary. In fact, the average person passes gas up to 25 times per day, and the human body produces 1-3 pints daily. However, some people experience more gas than others. Seventy-two percent of adults report they’ve passed gas in public or in front of someone else, according to a recent survey.
Often it’s simply the result of eating certain foods, including beans, cabbage, broccoli, apples, whole grains and cheese.
No matter the cause, passing gas in public can be embarrassing. Those planning a Labor Day or end-of-summer barbecue can use the following tips to help avoid such situations.
Manage gas intake. Habits like eating too quickly, chewing gum or drinking through a straw can lead to excess gas in the bowels.
Deactivate gas. CharcoCaps Homeopathic AntiGas Formula is a natural and fast way to control flatulence. CharcoCaps helps relieve gas caused by eating dairy products like yogurt, proteins such as fish, and foods high in fiber, like whole-wheat pizza. Its exceptionally porous material allows it to adsorb a large amount of gas for its size.
Walk it off. Instead of keeping still after a meal, take the lead with a post-dinner stroll or a team volleyball game. Gas trapped in the bowels causes distension and pain.
