Got gas? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. Have you been extra gassy lately? The average person flatulates 5 to 15 times per day. If you feel like you’re on the upper end or past that spectrum, you might want to try some of these tips. Exercising regularly, increasing your water intake, taking probiotics, and drinking peppermint tea can help decrease your unwanted symptoms. Unfortunately, chewing gum, smoking, drinking sodas or other carbonated beverages, even wearing dentures that don’t fit properly can increase gas and bloating. Excessive flatulence can also be a symptom of other problems, such as: celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, and food allergies or intolerances. If you have more than occasional gas, talk to your doctor to determine the cause. Any change with the digestive system shouldn’t be taken lightly. This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, a leader in preventative and proactive medicine.
