Hi - I don't know how it could increase bloating or gas. The volatile oils in fennel actively reduce gas in the GI tract and help you expel gas as well. Fennel also has an anti-spasmodic effect, which can help prevent bloating from mis-timed GI contractions. It might be that people notice they're expelling more gas when using fennel, instead of having trapped gas? Other than that I'm at a loss...
