Try eliminating the peppermint caps for a while. They were intolerable to me, and I'm not the only one. For those who have sucess with them, it's great. The rest of us have to try other things.

Also, make sure you've got enough soluble fiber in your diet. People get such relief cutting it out that they forget to gradually add it back in!

Third suggestion: have you added unusual (to your body) proteins like soy? Some people have trouble digesting that, though usually that resolves after a time. If you have added soy in large quantities, try dialing that back, too. Once you settle down, add it to your diet more slowly. Remember: soy is a bean. Beans = gas.

Last suggestion: try some of the yoga poses that help move the gas through your system. They helped me a bit.

Good luck!
