The causes of constant flatulence are related to excess air within the digestive system and include:
- Chewing with open mouth or very fast;
- Speak while chewing or ingesting large quantities of food at one go;
- Ingestion of food that causes gas, such as beans, broccoli, sweets, milk or potatoes;
- Bowel problems, such as constipation, diarrhea or Crohn's disease, for example;
- Use of lactose tablets in the composition and some nutritional supplements rich in carbohydrates.
Therefore, to avoid the formation of intestinal gas, treatment can be done by eliminating the causes mentioned above and drinking Melissa's tea with Fennel, for example, or the consumption of activated charcoal capsules. See other ways to treat flatulence in: How to eliminate intestinal gas.
