In Summary


  • Cut back on gas-producing foods like beans, ice cream and cabbage.
  • Try enzyme supplements.

Health experts say some foods are culprits for exacerbating excess gas in the intestines leading to excessive farting.

They say temporarily avoiding these types of foods can help identify the causes of excess gas.

The Mayo Clinic has listed foods that sometimes are the culprit.

The sugar lactose in dairy foods is a common cause of gas. People who are lactose intolerant are unable to fully digest lactose - the sugar in milk.
