Vegan Farts!?!
Answers: Firstly, sorry for the subject of this question. I've been vegetarian for 20 years and Vegan for the last month. I've always been a bit windy, but since turning Vegan I pass wind virtually non-stop. I've been mainly eating rice, veg, fruit, seeds, wholegrain bread, soya beans and adzuki beans. Do any Vegans out there have any tips for avoiding flatulence?
I haven't really had a problem with this, but I know some people have a harder time eating soy products because they get bloated and gassy...also there's a way to cook beans that helps prevent gas, but I'm not sure what it is...I think it helps if you sprout them a bit before cooking. Also it's better if you don't salt the water when you cook dried beans.
I'm not a vegan but Walgreen's sale things gas x or other gas relief meds that you could try or go see a pharmacist and ask them. they would have the very best advise. hope this helped.
I used to be a vegetarian, but I found that in order to make sure I got the required daily protein I had to eat a huge amount of beans!
After a few months of that, I dropped the veg-diet and regained my friends.
Wind is the result of improper digestion. It usually relates to the types of carbohydrates in your diet. I get it from wheat- if you are eating lots of bread and other wheat products this may be the cause. Personally I don't know anyone that gets more wind as a vegan than as a vego. You may just be in aperiod of digestive transition- particulalry if your diet as a vegetarian consisted of lots of fatty diary etc.
If it keeps up I'd try a detox diet to get the animal toxins out of your liver and adipose tissues. The best detoxes use only raw vegetables (no pills!!!) and last up to a week. But please consult a doctor first, especially if you are on any kind of medication.
I get it quite a bit too i suggest you eat a peppermint sweet sometimes that helps and i am a vegan too
Asafoetida or asafetida, also called hing or heeng in India, is a yellowish powder that sometimes helps when added during the cooking process. It usually comes in a small plastic container, available from Indian grocers. The smell is a bit strong (but not any worse than garlic, which it's often used as a replacement for), so you might need to keep the plastic container inside an airtight jar to stop the smell from permeating your pantry.
Fennel seeds can also help.
Honestly, just stay on your current diet and just fart it all out. After a while, you should be cleared out. They will smell especially raunchy because your new vegan diet is scraping your intestine walls clean of all the filthy cheese and dairy products you ate on a vegetarian diet. The human body was made to eat fruits and vegetables only. It was never meant for you to drink the milk of a cow. Milk is for calves, not humans.
Honestly, just eat some chicken and just fart it all out. After a while, you should be cleared out. They will smell especially raunchy because your new chicken diet is scraping your intestine walls clean of all the filthy vegan products you ate on a vegan diet. The human body was made to eat meat and vegetables. It was never meant for you to drink juice. Juice is for rabbits, not humans.
The first thing you can do is stop being a vegan terrorist. Stop trying to preach your unhealthy ways to our youth.
When you swallow more air, you will pass more gas. Slow down your eating and you will swallow less air; when you inhale your food, you swallow a lot of air.
Beans can increase flatulence, as can fibre products, too.
Usually it's caused by poor food combinations. Such as eating some rice and beans not long after or before eating some fruit. Just one example. As far as beans are concerned, they need to be soaked and drained many times before cooking to help remove that natural starch that causes indigestion in many people. Look up eating for digestibility or food combination for digestibility or something like that.
Why do you think that Vegans nearly always live together... I never rent property to VEGGIES ..... As most smoke pot and tree hug....... Can you imagine what they would do to my house ????
