[QUOTE="ChocFish, post: 7180, member: 981"] Excess wind isnt always due to medication, some foods, for example dairy produce (lactose) cabbage, broccoli, onions, etc, stress, hurried eating, not chewing food properly, swallowing air, anxiety, etc can cause this too. I am not sure about taking charcoal, this is meant to absorb toxins in the body and yes it does help with wind, but I wonder if charcoal would absorb medication as toxins and so render meds ineffective? Peppermint capsules, aniseed, fennel herbal teas, pro-biotics (esp kefir) worked well for me when I was badly afflicted with this embarrassing condition. Oh and some tried and tested tips: if you are out with a male, just fart to your hearts content, people will always think its the man whose done it. If you are sitting on a sofa/settee just press yourself right into it, the offending odour will travel along the springs/upholstery and surface around someone else further down the sofa. If the worst happens, say you drop one in a crowd just turn quickly to the person next to you and say really loud 'dont worry, I will say it was me' and smile all innocent. In supermarkets just walk around the cheese section, then walk away fast. I checked out the website someone kindly posted in here, hmmm not so sure about these inserts that you would wear inside your pants, surely they have to be placed closely to the strategic spot, and unfortunately pants have a tendency to sag, so I dont think that I would feel very comfortable running around with them, besides they dont come with a silencer....room for improvement there me thinks, so girls I think going out with a male is a better option, and guys, well you are ok, we know you tend to combust all the time anyway. Moderators or admin will probably terminate my membership now... so I better shut up. [/QUOTE]
