After years of living with constant, severe flatulence, I've finally found the ultimate solution that works for me. I post it here in the hope that it can help other people. The gas I experienced was always extremely stinky. It was also accompanied, often, by bloating, caused by trapped gas, and a lot of discomfort. I lived with it daily for years. I tried special diets, including the specific carbohydrate diet (SCD), and many nutritional supplements, such as ginger, cayenne and aloe vera juice, and although I was able to make some small improvements, nothing was very satisfactory. Relaxation techniques, meditation, yoga, aerobic exercise, all helped to keep the stress under control, but did not relieve the gas. Constipation did not seem to be the cause: I had very regular, "normal" daily bowel movements. My condition had a very negative effect on all aspects of my life, not just the obvious social problems; it interfered with my ability to think clearly and do my work. The symptoms got so bad that I was sent by my doctor to get a colonoscopy. There was no evidence of cancer or inflammation; the cause remained a mystery. I still don't know what the cause was, but through trial-and-error, I've found the cure for me: psyllium capsules, taken in a specific way. The capsules are available under the trademark name Metamucil, and there are also (cheaper) generic brands. Each capsule contains 525 mg of psyllium. I take 15 capsules a day, spread out over the entire waking day. The important thing is to spread it out over the whole day, and to take enough water. I never take more than two capsules in any given hour-period. I take a capsule with about 4-8 oz of water and then I don't take another one for at least 30 minutes. I make sure to drink at least 4 oz of water with each capsule, and to also drink at least 8 glasses of clear fluids spread out over the day. To make it easier, I count out the capsules in the morning and put them in my pocket; I then have easy access to take them throughout the day. I've found that taking the capsules in large doses of 5-6 caps at a time, as directed on the bottles, does not work for me. Using my routine, I am able to eat anything I want. Bowel movements are very regular and normal and I do not suffer from ANY of my previous gas problems. It is truly amazing. It may seem like a pain to be popping so many caps all day long, but for me it's definitely worth it.
