Gas can be not only uncomfortable, but embarrassing as well. You will be happy to know that not only are there simple steps that you can take to avoid the problems, there are severalhome remedies for stomach gastreatment once the problem has arisen.
Initially, many gas issues can be avoided by changes in the diet. Gas producing foods—such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli and beans—can simply be avoided. In the alternative, adding a digestive aid to the food can help prevent gas from developing when the offending food is eaten. Substituting tofu for beans is another way to still keep the protein intake high but substitute a more digestible protein. Avoiding artificial sweeteners, especially sugar alcohols, will greatly reduce gas production and its associated stomach cramping. Cutting out carbonated beverages will go a long way to reducinggas in the stomachas well.
Another notorious gas producing food is milk and milk products. In the adult population, lactose intolerance can manifest as gas production. Some of the sufferers of lactose intolerance produce copious amounts of gas, hard for both the sufferer and for those around them. Avoidance is really the only way to avoid the painful combination of dairy and lactose intolerance.
But the simplest thing that can be done in the home to improve stomach gas is to chew your food slowly and completely. Gas in the stomach is, in large part, air. The aromatic portions of the gas in the stomach are made of chemicals like esters. While pungent, they are really a small fraction of the gas produced. Anything that will reduce air intake into the gut is a good first step to the overall reduction of gas.
Once you have a case of stomach gas, there arehome remedies for stomach gas that will ease the pain. The herbs anise, peppermint, chamomile, or fennel can be made into a soothing tea that is very helpful. Avoid all types of tobacco products and increase the amount of fluid that you are drinking, especially water. In extreme cases, try lying on your back and drawing your knees up to your chest. It is easier to expel painful gas that way.
Other herbal and homeremedies for stomach gasinclude a tea made from blanched verbena leaves. One teaspoon of fresh ginger and I teaspoon of lime juice taken together will relieve stomach pain due to gas. Parsley tea is another herbal remedy that can be used as a home remedy for stomach gas. Tea made from passion fruit and peach leaves is also said to cure gas attacks.
