today we’re going to talk about how to

stop

flatulence now the average person

according to they

farts between 5 to 15 times a day with

no

odor

now you might be sitting down there

saying i fart more than that or i fart

less than that or i don’t fart at all

but this is an average person so it’s

kind of like saying the average person

consumes

145 pounds of sugar per year well

i consume

zero sugar in a year so some people

consume a tremendous amount

and some

a small amount but we’re looking at the

average but an average person expels gas

at a frequency between 5 to 15 a day now

there’s been times in your life that you

may have experienced this more depending

on what you eat for example if you’re in

college and you eat this thing called

hormel chili for example

you may experience more flatulence i

know for me i had a problem in my late

20s when i was

trying to become a vegan for a few

months it didn’t really work out but if

you have a problem now i’m going to show

you exactly what to do to resolve it now

since we’re on the topic of farts i have

to bring up cow farts and burps okay

because if you do a search on flatulence

uh the first i don’t know how many pages

we’ll talk about how cows are farting

and burping

and releasing about 160 to 320 liters of

methane per day and that’s basically

causing the global warming etc etc

but if you actually dig into

all the data and research you’re going

to find some real interesting things

about that that counter

that theory and give you some of the

data that’s missing and never included

when they’re talking about this topic

and i’m going to put that research down

below but between 1990 and 2007

a global cattle and buffalo population

increased by a factor of 125

million

extra cows and buffalo on this planet

and during that period of time there was

zero increase

in methane but this data is always

omitted when they’re talking about this

topic so again when you’re trying to

evaluate information

you really need to have all the

information to come up with the right

conclusion there are many other things

that are much bigger in contributing to

more methane than cows all right so what

causes flatulence

well we have certain fiber that you eat

certain carbohydrates that you eat in

the form of sugar

starches okay that are then fermented so

microbes are acting on these fibers and

sugars

and they’re

eating them that’s their food and as a

byproduct hydrogen is released and then

methane is also released now this

process should occur

in your large intestine it should not

occur in the small intestine when it

does

you get what’s called sibo small

intestinal bacterial overgrowth and that

can create a lot of gas and a lot of

problems and one of the causes for sibo

is a lack of stomach acid in fact one of

the big causes of gas in general

is a lack of stomach acid as we get

older we lose the acidity in our stomach

if we take antibiotics we start losing

the stomach acid if we take antacids we

lose the stomach acid there’s a lot of

things that we’re exposed to that can

contribute to less stomach acid

now if we don’t have the right ph in our

stomach between like one and three which

is very very acidic

food gets undigested and uh if it’s

undigested

everything below the stomach has a more

difficult time breaking that food down

and that creates all sorts of strain and

stress on the enzyme production from

your pancreas from the gallbladder

releasing bile

from the small intestine to do its work

and then you can start getting

fermentation

in the small intestine and again that’s

called sibo and this is where a person

can starts consuming fiber okay even

from vegetables and they really just

blow up like a balloon and they’re

they’re confused because they’re saying

well i’m eating this good healthy food

why do i feel so bad they can have very

severe bloating and pain and very severe

gas

simply because you have these bacteria

that are in the wrong place and we’re

getting fermentation in the wrong place

so here’s the solution to

lack of stomach acid

betaine hydrochloride

the chloride contributes and improves

the hydrochloric acid okay so this

breaks down and helps you build up your

stomach acid it works great

these come in tablets

you can

take a couple okay it might make a

slight difference but i always recommend

take a little bit more because sometimes

you might need six seven eight at a time

to create the effect that you want

especially in the beginning and over

time you’ll need less and less and less

because your body will start just making

more to the point where you don’t you

won’t need

any any uh help building your stomach

acid and i also recommend a couple herbs

that are really good for digestion

ginger really really good

for not just helping you with gas but to

help release

bile to help release enzymes and also to

help with any type of spasms going on in

the small intestine or tightness so it

just allows you to relax more in that

area so you can digest

any type of mint is really good for

digestion and fennel

now what about apple cider vinegar is

that good well if you actually look up

some of the credible sites on google

it’ll tell you there’s no research that

says that drinking apple cider vinegar

will help you with digestion but my

opinion is i don’t really care if

there’s a study or not i know it works

i’ve done it myself

i’ve given it to my patients it works on

a lot of people

and who’s going to spend the money on

the research on apple cider vinegar

unless you own an apple cider vinegar

company

no one’s going to spend that money

instead most the money in researching

digestive problems is going to be funded

by

medication who can afford to spend money

on research on digestive problems

pharmaceutical companies not your

average joe that wants to do a study an

apple cider vinegar but there is some

research on acetic acid and slowing your

digestion down

so

the enzymes in your small intestine can

start acting on the food and contribute

to more complete digestion and so the

faster the food goes through your

digestive system

the less complete the digestion is going

to be i mean just think about if someone

has

diarrhea right food could go right

through you undigested but if there’s

something that can slow down the

digestion like apple cider vinegar

and consuming enough fat at the meal the

rest of the digestive juices can act on

that food and really break it down to

the point where you don’t get these

problems with gas and extra methane and

bloating and other related symptoms so

both betaine hydrochloride and apple

cider vinegar are really good

to reduce flatulence and hopefully get

rid of it completely all right now let’s

talk about food intolerances like

lactose intolerance right this is not a

true allergy but you’re just intolerant

because you don’t have the enzymes to

break down this milk sugar so anything

dairy can create a lot of gas a lot of

people have a problem with this now you

can take enzymes for that

or just avoid dairy then you have gluten

a lot of people have an allergy to

gluten and some people don’t but they

have an intolerance for gluten and that

can create a lot of gas bloating pain

arthritis etc so the good thing about

what i recommend is if you’re on a

healthy keto you’re not going to have to

worry about it because you’re not going

to be consuming gluten or grains for

that matter but for any type of

intolerances you can always take more

enzymes you can also take probiotics to

help

fortify the microbes so they can make

more enzymes

i found a lot of people that have food

allergies if they take certain

probiotics they can actually reduce

their food allergies okay then we have

what’s called gas producing

foods like fruit is a big one right

beans legumes starches like potato

rice

uh things like that grains

sugars

certain cruciferous vegetables like

brussels sprouts okay

broccoli

cabbage

then you have like onions and garlic

these are very gas producing for certain

people

other people can consume them without a

problem but if you are on the ketogenic

plan you’re not going to be doing fruit

you’re not going to do beans you’re not

going to do starches you’re not going to

do sugar so you’re going to be in good

shape now if you have a problem with

cruciferous vegetables there are other

vegetables that will not produce gas

like lettuce tomato zucchini olives and

avocado okay so just eat more of these

right here i will say when i recommend

the healthy version of the ketogenic

diet i recommend that people consume a

lot more

greens and salads and vegetables however

for some people

they don’t have the microbes to handle

that much fiber so you want to go slow

and you want to gradually go into it

but a good percentage of the people just

jump right in they have a really big

salad each day and there’s no problem

but the benefit of the fiber to feed the

microbes as well as the potassium the

magnesium the vitamin c and all those

phytonutrients

can greatly help a person and take their

health to a whole new level all right

number four sugar alcohols

when someone starts the ketogenic diet

inevitably they’re going to be

really into all these really cool

desserts you can now have and make

with these little keto cookies and they

have little bars and they’re filled with

these keto friendly fiber like corn

fiber and other fibers like dextrin that

are considered keto friendly that create

a lot of gas for people

inulin might create a lot of gas and

it’s in a lot of different keto friendly

products inulin is a type of fiber and

then you have the sugar alcohols like

erythritol

xylitol

mannitol which for a lot of people can

produce a lot of gas so you will quickly

find out if you can tolerate

these sugar alcohols once you start the

ketogenic plan i think a lot of people

when they start keto they go overboard

and just consume a lot of the stuff

i would just recommend testing the

waters do a little bit

i use

xylitol non-gmo

on a regular basis in my coffee i’ll

just have one in my coffee each day i’m

good it creates no problem whatsoever

but i just wanted to bring up sugar

alcohols because that is definitely one

source of

flatulence number five

chewing gum especially if you have your

mouth open you can be swallowing a lot

of air eating with your mouth open okay

you can swallow a lot of air and that

could end up with some gas

so eat with your mouth closed and if

you’re going to chew gum keep your mouth
