Tackle tailgate flatulence before the next game
It’s time to rethink what’s cooking at the tailgate party when the “exhaust fumes” are coming from you, not the parked car. Intestinal gas is one of the body’s most embarrassing functions, especially when the sound isn’t muffled by cheering fans and the odor is pungent. In fact, according to a recent survey for CharcoCaps Homeopathic AntiGas Formula , 72 percent of adults nationwide admit to passing gas in public or in front of someone else.
Most pre-game celebration fare – hamburgers, baked beans and alcohol – have a tendency to trigger intestinal gas. Dr. Patricia Raymond, M.D., gastroenterologist and assistant professor at Eastern Virginia Medical School, says “we all experience flatulence. Yet, we can get it under control if we slightly change our diets – even at a tailgate party.”
To minimize the impact and odor
- Certain Foods in Moderation: High gas-producing foods that are staples at a tailgate party are hot dogs and hamburgers (fatty meats), baked beans, coleslaw (cabbage), and alcohol. Instead opt for less gassy alternatives such as grilled chicken, angel food cake and low-fat frozen yogurt for dessert.
- Deactivate Gas with Activated Charcoal: Don’t forget to pack CharcoCaps Homeopathic AntiGas Formula for a natural and safe way to control embarrassing flatulence while with family and friends at a tailgate. CharcoCaps is commonly used by people suffering from gas discomfort, pressure and bloating to help stimulate and support the body’s own defense system against the discomfort of intestinal gas and the embarrassing/uncomfortable symptoms associated with it.
- Walk it Off: Instead of keeping still during the game, take a half-time stroll to keep your body moving and the gas flowing.
