Hi,
I sympathize with your gas issues, your household sounds a lot like ours! We have plenty of matches on hand for the same reason. When I read the menu you shared I thought, "man, I'd be farting up a storm!" For me its all the soy products! Soy milk, miso, soy yogurt and good lord, hummus!? All that fresh garlic in a base of beans! Soy is a bean product and I know if I go overboard with it I have terrible gas and bloating problems! I always take Beano even if I'm just having a small cup of soy milk. I have found that mixing soy milk with rice milk tastes really good and reduces the gas factor a little. Anyway, maybe if you go easy with the soy products and start taking Beano you'll find some relief. Good luck!

....I hope it will be okay.....like does it interfere with prescription meds?? I am on several for a hormone condition, plus the Zelnorm, plus an SSRI (Celexa). I'll get on the website again to be sure. 
Jen.
PS: Did you NOT see the compliment I paid you?? Naughty girl! You are just like me.....I do not see what others see!

Hey there, Jen!
You ordered the Jarro? I don't think you will be disappointed. Do a search, and you'll find lots of info about it -- as a few people said, it can't hurt you, the worst would be that you wouldn't notice any difference at all.
Hon, did you send me another post that I missed again -- and a compliment at that!? I'm sorry. I don't know what I'm doing wrong to miss these, except I don't read all the posts unless I see my name on the subject line. And once I answer a particular thread, I don't read others' answers to that thread. In the future, if you have a post for me, please put my name in the subject line, and I'll be sure to look for it.
Also, I haven't been on the boards much lately. I'm really busy sewing for the new house right now; I've only got 5 more months before it's built, and I have a lot more drapes and a dining room rag rug to make -- at the rate I'm going I'm not going to be done in time.
Again, my apologies.

Jen,
I also experience gas from time to time. Watch the banana bread, I get it every time I eat it. Maybe only have ione slice and try some beano or other digestzyme during the days. I cut soymilk from my diet and my gas reduced significantly, switched to rice milk. I love fruit soy yogurt and have it everyday. For me apples any form give me gas.

I need to show this to my husband! He tells me I sound like a MAN! I tell him I have a medical condition but he seems to think I take a sick delight in it. (AHG! I can't help it nor can I keep going to the opposite side of the house to "air my issues") I am so scared that I will be in public and have it "slip" out. I am on zelnorm which helps my cramping but the gas still comes. I will take that over the cramp/bloat/pain attacks though. I use gas x pretty often. works for me. When thinking of how long I have had IBS I am certain it has been since 95. I had a horrible gas attack that went on for days...and I had JUST started dating this guy I really liked (not my poor husband!). I literally would walk away and have to go to another floor of his house. I was mortified. If you don't have IBS you just wouldn't understand!
