Are You Eating These Foods?

I’m about to share with you the list of foods that cause gas.  But before I do, I must warn you. Foods that produce gas in one person, might not produce gas in another. Mainly because each person digestive system is unique.

I’ll be the first to admit that my stomach is very sensitive to certain foods, which if I eat will cause me to have gas within 30 minutes of eating.

Enough about my situation, by now you must be thinking “what foods cause gas?”.

Let’s start with the main culprits that for most people, these food reap havoc on their digestive system causing gas, bloating and belching.

First we will start at a high level and then drill down to particular gas producing foods.

Foods that contain fiber, starches, and sugars will give most people unwanted gassy problems.

  • Fiber Foods – food fiber comes in two forms soluble and insoluble fiber.  Avoid eating a lot of soluble fiber as this type of food causes much gas.
  • Starch Foods – Starchy foods such as potatoes and pasta are also to be avoided.
  • Sugary Foods – not all foods that contain sugar will give you gas. But! The most common sugars that cause gas are fructose, lactose, raffinose, and sorbitol.

I find it very hard and difficult to avoid many of the gas producing foods on this Top 20 list. Especially foods like apples, beans, cabbage, cheese, pasta, and potatoes…because these items are always ready available at home, work, and when I eat out.
