Why am I so Gassy

Why Am I So Gassy?

Written by Dr. Brandon Rieders, Gastroenterologist

Excess gas can be an embarrassing and frustrating issue, but understanding its root causes is the first step toward finding relief. Gas is primarily produced when bacteria in the colon ferment undigested food. Factors such as poor digestion, food intolerances, or an imbalance of gut bacteria can lead to excessive gas production. In fact, studies suggest that gut dysbiosis is a significant contributor to increased gas and bloating in individuals (O’Toole & Jeffery, 2015).


Happitum offers a solution to this common issue with its blend of ingredients like ginger, fennel seed, and digestive enzymes. Ginger has long been known for its digestive benefits, and fennel seed helps reduce bloating and gas by promoting healthy digestion and relieving abdominal discomfort (Zhao et al., 2018). Digestive enzymes also play a crucial role in breaking down complex foods, ensuring they are properly absorbed and minimizing the chance of fermentation in the gut.


If you struggle with excess gas, incorporating Happitum into your routine could be a helpful first step. By addressing the root causes of gas, you can find comfort and improve your digestive health.
