Pages: 1 | 2 | (show all) Stinky gas!       #242659 - 01/30/06 07:05 AM Edit Reply Quote Sandyg Reged: 09/13/04 Posts: 403 I don't know why lately I've had such stinky gas. It's embarrassing! Normally after I go, the problem is relieved but the last few days, no matter if I go or not, I still have it. Can soy make this happen? I've been having soy milk in my tea, cereal and soy pizza which is a new thing for me. Other than that, I've just been eating safely. Any remedies? I just ordered a bunch of beano hoping that helps with my meals.

Sometimes it's best to gradually up your increase of soy. The beano may help as soy does come from a bean. I got really horribly smelling gas when I started using acacia -- other people have problems with certain other foods - like oatmeal (that bothers me too). So you may want to look out for other possible triggers as well. Good luck and I hope you're feeling better soon.

But if I eat too much at one sitting, or something I am not supposed to eat....watch out!

Cranberry juice for smelly gas I'd lay off the soy totally. I never eat or drink it, personally. I'm fine with rice substitutes. -------------------- ~ Beth Constipation, pain prodominent,cramps, spasms and bloat!

Then again as I started the acacia. Should I just stick with it for a while to see if it goes away or should i stop taking both altogether??? -------------------- Taylor IBS-D Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Stinky gas!       #243129 - 01/31/06 12:00 PM Edit Reply Quote jsumer Reged: 01/31/06 Posts: 1 All my problems began when I started eating soy! Soy actually caused ymptoms of colitis and it turned out I'm allergic to it. I've been told many people are sensitive to it.

If it doesn't go away, or if you have any other problems, you may want to consider alternatives. See, I also bloated, and my BM's started becoming dry and hard. I was IBS-D -- so you'd think it would be heaven -- but they were hard, painful and well... it wasn't fun at all. That was at a low dose too. I was told I wasn't at a high enough dose -- but the higher I went -- the worse I got. I finally just said enough and quit. Some things just don't agree with certain people. Having said that -- acacia does have benefits that other fibers don't - so give it a good chance. If it doesn't work out though -- don't worry about it. We're all made different - and what works great for some, doesn't work at all for others. Just try something else.
