5 Tips to Help Prevent Gas
Printer-friendly version
Gas may cause cramping and bloating. To prevent it, try these tips.
- Avoid carbonated beverages, chewing gum, highly spiced foods, and too many sweets.
- Don't skip meals.
- Don't talk and chew at the same time. This causes you to swallow air, which may cause gas.
- Eat only peeled, cooked fruits and vegetables that don't have seeds. Strain the seeds out of tomatoes.
- Avoid beans, corn (including popcorn), and nuts. Vegetables in the cabbage and onion families — including broccoli and garlic — may also cause problems.
